I haven’t posted any music for a long time, so I thought I’d
indulge myself for a change.
Back in the late 90s, when I was working at the theatre and
happy as a pig in muck (mostly), I developed a taste for ethnic fusion music. I
suppose it accords with my naïve maxim:
Let’s all remember
where we’re from. Let’s all glory in the better, friendlier, most positive
aspects of our culture. And then let’s all get together and just get on.
One of the leading lights of my interest was an album by
Afro-Celt Sound System. I’d forgotten all about them for many years, but
tonight I rediscovered the album on YouTube. This is one of the tracks. I find
the joining of African and Irish idioms quite hypnotic.
