many years ago I used to edit/publish/write 90% of a freesheet newspaper in Temple Bar and Dave was our gig photograapher. This was long before Road Records. He had a great eye for a shot even then.

Wow! Thanks for that Ivor. Have you seen Images From The Phoenix Park?

Actually I did.... I'm not sure where or when but now that you mention it I'm reminded I did see them. There's quite a few photographers (who have money behind them for PR and premesis) who are making a nice living selling shots like that and they're nowhere near as good as Dave. But there ye go, it was ever thus. I hope he's doing ok.

Nina Perssons debut solo album from 2001 and is produced by the late great Mark Linkous.. it's like a precursor to
the Long gone before daylight album.

Thanks for that Jad, I didn't know she had a solo album. Very taken with her lyrics at the moment!

Inspired by Camelot on the box tonight. Of Once And Future Kings indeed....

Gib was telling me only last week that he's a very contented house husband while Julie's out teaching English to foreign students. Plus, of course, he's still doing the photography....

on turntable this afternoon....

God, this take me right back! I remember buying this after mass on a Sunday in a certain strange town. My very first Groundhogs (double) Lp! 1973 or thereabout......





Footnote: Just found out that the Hog's main man Tony T S McPhee suffered a stroke three years ago and thankfully he's fine except for the fact that his voice is gone :-(

Interesting, that one....my version is narrated by Richard Burton.
