Michael Hanly & Mícheál O'Donnell - Celtic Folkweave (Rare 1974 Irish Folk masterpiece on Polydor)

 

Originally released in 1974 on Polydor Records, Mick Hanly & Mícháel O'Donnell’s Celtic Folkweave is considered one of the most seminal albums in the Irish folk music genre.
The album features some of Ireland's most well-regarded traditional musicians, including Mick Hanly, Mícháel O'Donnell, Liam O’Flynn, Matt Molloy, Donal Lunny, Tommy Peoples, Declan McNeils & Tríona Ní Dhomhnaill.

Dan Casamajor - My Family (Sealed copy of this 1969 US Private Folk masterpiece)

 

Very cool period piece that beautifully captures the era of college students just starting to look inward, grow their hair and get into "reefer". Very talented guy doing folk and folk-rock, some tracks acoustic and some with sparse electric backing. Would have been right at home on Vanguard and really does deliver the goods. (review found on Popsike)

Listen : A4. Years of Happiness   &   B1. Leaving You Alone  &  A3. Now That  &  B2. All That I Can Say  &  A1. Some Call It Livin'  &  B3. Things I Should Have Done  &  B5. Tarnished Star

A true masterpiece in my opinion !

Parasolerie - ST (Very rare 1977 Private French Folk LP)

 

Very rare (limited edition of 500 copies) French chanson / Folk LP privately released in 1977.

Not sure this is a band ... I think the LP is the result of a collaboration between 4 different French Singer-Songwriters, Thierry Dumas, Yves Paule, Alain Ibanez & Eric Duclos (like a split album).

All originals - 3 songs written by Thierry Dumas, 2 by Yves Paule, 3 by Alain Ibanez and 2 by Eric Duclos.

A very interesting LP with great songwriting and interpretation ...
