The Very Best Of Irish Folk

I am talking about the kind of thing you get in Irish theme pubs, which I think is ghastly. Its that "When Irish eyes are smiling" take on Irish music, and its an insult to a great tradition.

A few that you might have heard of are The Chieftains, Altan and Sharon Shannon. But probably of more importance now is the emergence of many Irish 'pop' groups who have incorporated the traditional instruments into their mainline chart music. The two which spring immediately to mind are B*witched and The Corrs (most apparent in the excellent instrumental 'Toss ...
