One of my favorite artist...
Vin Garbutt "Plugged! -Live-" (UK Folk 1995)

For those that have never managed to get in a Vin Garbutt audience, this is a neat primer showing his surreal humour, his lyrical songwriting, his heroic pennywhistle playing and his unique vocals. An excellent album that is thought provoking and hilarious and moving and foot-tapping........

For more informations, please check here: The Living Tradition


1. Wings
2. A Man of the Earth
3. To find the Ulster peace
4. Fell off the back of a boat
5. Send the boats away
6. The Birk brow jig / Thomas Mc Elvogue's jig
7. Welcome home Howard Green
8. Darwin to Dili
9. Believe me if all those endearing young charms
10. Away from the pits
11. Nothing to show for it all
12. When oppressed becomes oppressor

Highly recommend to all english folk music lovers
and some Ian Anderson (of Jethro Tull) fans.

Here is "The Young Tin Whistle Pest" (1974) from my old post.

To anonymous visitor:
Finaly, here is your most wanted album. And happy birthday! to your uncle.
(I was born in September, too)

Complaint received from Vin Garbutt himself...
