How Irish Music Conquered the World (mostly thanks to Horslips)
In 1972 there were thousands of showbands in Ireland (or that’s how it seemed) cranking out covers. The 60s had bypassed Irish music, bar Van, Rory, Gilbert and Phil. But by 1977 the Rats and Lizzy were top of the British charts and we’d got our own rock festivals.
Tom Dunne credits Horslips, who introduced us to rock and roll one ballroom at a time, wiped out the showbands, invented U2, and had great hair.
Recorded live at Hinterland Festival of Literature and Arts.
