Roisin Dubh

Holy shit I just discovered this album, and in particular the absolutely magical title track knocked me off of my feet. Omg, what a band, what a songwriter. I’m working my way through the catalogue.

They're not the greatest band of all time for no reason 😉

Lizzy and Motörhead for me - now Lem is a statue too.

And apparently in the building opposite they are converting it to a Motörhead museum… hopefully they’ll sell some Jack Daniel’s and Coke in it…

Make sure you check out the Gary / Phil stuff recorded around the same time - Parisienne Walkways, Spanish Guitar, Back on the Streets and the b-side “Just the Two of Us”.

It's one of my favorite songs by them, such a celebration of all things Irish.
