| Dympna O' Sullivan Launched on 8th Nov. 2007 at the Ennis November Trad Fest, Dympna's first release is an album of the most beautiful ,rhythmic concertina music.She is probably one of the most self-deprecating musicians I have ever met and the limelight sits heavily on her shoulders but she plays with the most perfect assurance and her music is indeed a treasure. Definitely, Mrs. Crotty's re-incarnation.
| Bobby Casey November 2007 release of the fiddling of West Clare legend, Bobby Casey. All the tracks on this album were recorded by Reg Hall and Bill Leader in Camden Town,London in 1966,1967 and 1971. Bobby played the London pub scene with such musical luminaries as East Galway fiddler,Martin Byrnes,fellow Clare musicians,Tommy McCarthy ,Willie Clancy and Paddy Breen. In the liner notes,Reg Hall describes Bobby's"lonesome fiddling" as "reeking of rural Ireland".This music gave solace to many the Irish immigrant who settled in north London at that time and indeed ensured the continued good health of traditional Irish music into the future.
| Matt Molloy,John Carty and Arty McGlynn December 2007 launch of flute,fiddle and guitar music from three masters of traditional Irish music. No advice but to buy it quickly .
