This is a live cut from an NPR radio broadcast back in 1988 while my Irish Trad group Scartaglen was on one of its first east coast tours. Found recently on a cassette tape. Musically this was one of my favorite periods in the history of the band…

Paul Lennon and I got our "Irish up" after our last collaboration and did one more to share with everyone. Hope you all have a wonderful St. Patrick's Day! Here are the lyrics: The Land We Call Tara © 2015 Lyrics - Colleen Dillon, Music…

This was a favourite tune of Chief O'Neill (you don't say!) an Irish police captain in the USA who used to enlist Irish musicians into the police force so they could play music sessions together.

Fish on..

I Know, I know, it take balls to cover Bono. I adore him honestly. This is just a vocal exercise for me during my RPM efforts. I gave it hell though right?

In this track the guitar melodies and solos are based on an unusual scale John McLaughlin (of Mahavishnu Orchestra fame) liked to use. It's basically a Phrygian Dominant scale with the flat-6 removed.

Started off going some where else, ended up with this !!!

Was messing about one day and this was the result.
