5 out of 5 stars An invaluable introduction to the world of Irish music........1999-01-21

"Legends of Ireland" is not just another Celtic conveyor belt compilation but an accurate distillation of the continuing evolotion of Irish folk music. The collection coevrs 3 decades of music featuring three very important eras the folk boom era of the late 1960's the emergence of important artists like Planxty, The Bothy Band, De Dannan, Christy Moore etc and the new developments which make Irish music what it is now. Another worthwhile element is that besides featuring the well known artists lesser known bands like Mellow Candle and the influential figure of Sean O'Riada are not fogotten either. In short "Legends of Ireland" is historical ,enjoyable and excellent listening. It is an invaulable introduction to the world of Irish music
