  • Description

    HORSLIPS - THE FATHERS OF CELTIC ROCK RETURNETH – THE DEFINING BAND OF THE CELTIC ROCK GENRE At one point in the mid-1970s, Horslips bidded to be Ireland's answer to Steeleye Span. They also had a shot at being the next Jethro Tull, Genesis, or even Yes in its folkier moments. Horslips released many superb albums along the way, becoming Ireland's most acclaimed folk-rock and progressive band. Founded in Dublin during 1970 as a quintet playing a brand of folk-based rock music whose only parallel could be found in the early work of Fairport Convention. Horslips drew on their distinctly Irish roots, and were capable of playing straight folk material when the moment called for it, but weren't afraid to turn up loud and hard, in the best art-rock style, on the right songs. Horslips stunned the 02 in Dublin and the Belfast Arena in December with their 2 ½ hour spectacular performances reminding the public that Horslips are definitely back on the scene once again. Tracks; Nighttown Boy / The Blind Can't Lead The Blind / Stars/ We Bring The Summer With Us / Sunburst / Mad Pat / Blindman/ King Of The Fairies/ Lonely Hearts / The Best Years Of My Life. + 3 BONUS LIVE TRACKS Recorded in Berlin, Philadelphia & New York in the 70’s
