A present from Lost In Tyme
Tir Na Nog "Hibernian"
Live at Hibernian, Birmingham 1995
Reviewer: A music fan
Leo O'Kelly and Sonny Condell recorded this live in 1995 at the Hibernian in Birmingham . There is something of a health warning on the inner sleeve on sound, but the songs are almost manslaughtered by the low quality master tapes.
Out of the twelve songs performed 'Time is like a Promise' and 'So Freely' deliver romantic medieval imagery. Leo O'Kelly's 'Venezuela' has since become his signature tune. The flamenco- style guitar in tandem with the haunting lyrics transport the listener far across the North Atlantic Ocean to the setting of a peasant village in the Black and White TV documentary somewhere in the misty seventies that inspired this melody.
'Two White Horses' makes the new listener believe that a modern version of Simon and Garfunkel is now hitting the new millenium. Some of the other tracks remind one of those love dirges from the dust bowl of Woody Guthrie's 1950's America.

I could have posted it in : "Lost-In-Tyme" blog. But i 've posted it here instead, so that every visitor will be capable of understanding that bloggers are putting their personal ambitions aside, united by a common goal : to transmit music vibes all over the world without expecting to gain profit out of it!!!
I think this one got deleted, any chance for a repost? It would be greatly appreciated!
