"fisherman's blues" is their folky/celtic masterpiece. 'room to roam' has some good songs on it, but it is very uneven - - i believe it was the last record they made before they disbanded. BTW, you also bought some world party. karl wallinger is world party - he used to be in the waterboys prior to the production of "fisherman's". waterboys was driven by the writing team of karl wallinger and mike scott. when karl left, they got rootsier and mike scott now puts out folky/celtic solo work. karl moved more towards beatlesesque pop. on the first world party record there's a great cover of bob dylan's "all i really wanna do". barbara np: loreena mckennitt ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 07 Mar 1998 11:13:33 +0000 From: BarBearUh Subject: Re: music binging - michelle shocked Neal Copperman wrote: > > Tuesday I saw Michelle Shocked's Intimate Dance Party here in Baltimore. > Another fantastic show from Ms. Shocked.

A band that I've had the pleasure of working for, in my capacity as assistant engineer/grunt for an on-location sound reinforcement concern, Stockton's Wing, will be the Iron Horse in Northhampton Mass on Mar. 12. Those in the area who are fans of Celtic Music might want to consider checking them out. I got this info from a Stanford web page and can't vouch for it's accuracy. They will, according to the list, also be at the Bottom Line on Mar, 10. Thanks much to Philip David Morgan for the head's up about Susan McKeown's L.I. shows. She did not mention them when I saw her early show last night at Fez. I'm sure Meth and Woj (who I saw going into the late show w/Ecto entourage in tow) will fill you in about that. At the early (too short) set she did some stuff from the new "Bushes and Briars" CD, which just finished it's first go round in my drive.
