And being brought up in a pub, she associated these songs with drink and madmen and fighting. This collection of 64 Irish songs is designed both for singing as a group or performing for an audience. It was like walking into an explosion. I had about four chords on the guitar then, and Tommy Makem still couldn't play the tin whistle because his hand wasn't fully healed, but Pat could play the harmonica. Pat, eldest of the family and businessman of the group, is the founder of the very successful Tradition Records. A brave little band of poets and socialists stormed the General Post Office in Dublin on Easter Monday, , and though they failed, before the year was out the first large hole had been blown through the ramparts of the British Empire. Sometimes, bass players don't play the root note of the chord Or as Liam puts it: "The Ballad Revival means, in its baldest form, that it became respectable again for so-called respectable people to sing working-class songs.

    Tradition label Discography by David Edwards, Mike Callahan & Patrice Eyries © 2018 by Mike Callahan Tradition Label Discography The Tradition Label was established in New York City in 1956 by Pat Clancy (of the Clancy Brothers) and Diane Hamilton. The label recorded folk and blues music. The label was independent and active from 1956 until about 1961. Kenny Goldstein was the producer for the label during the early years. During 1960 and 1961, Charlie Rothschild took over the business side of the company. Clancy sold the company to Bernard Solomon at Everest Records in 1966. Everest started issuing albums on the label in 1967 and continued until 1974 using recordings from the original Tradition label and Vee Jay/Horizon.

  • Introduction to Global Music the Center for European
    Introduction to Global Music The Center for European Studies (CES) and other Area Studies Centers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are collaborating with the student-run radio station WXYC in the production of the Global Music Show. This monthly hour-long program features music from a particular area of the world combined with commentary by guest scholars, who discuss the music played in the context of the culture and history of the region that produced it. To support cultural learning, CES has created student listening guides, pre- and post-listening discussion questions, and resource links for each of their Global Music programs. The programs run about one hour, and so listening and discussion would work well for block schedule classes. If your class runs the traditional hour length, you can have the class listen over two periods, and then discuss. Alternatively, you can assign the listening for homework, and hold the discussion during class time. Music can teach us much about a culture that never appears in a textbook. Use these programs and teaching resources to connect your students with European cultures in a dynamic, new way. Encourage students to continue their exploration of Europe through music. Irish Stew Professor Nicholas Allen and Reece McGowen Pre-Listening Questions Ask students to think about these questions before you listen to the program. Write their answers on the board. 1. You’re going to hear some Irish music. Make some predictions. What instruments do you expect to hear? What kind of songs will you be listening to? What will the songs be about? 2.

  • The Mostly Celtic Songbook
    The Mostly Celtic Songbook Mostly Celtic Songbook 2 Introduction After sitting in on some of the former Tuesday evening open seisiúns at C.B. Hannegan’s in Los Gatos, and trying to sing along but not remembering the lyrics, it seemed like a good idea to compile a songbook that we could all potentially share. After one or two pints and a few encouraging words from Tony Becker, the idea became a project. So, here it is. In retrospect, it turned out to be more helpful to me than to the group, as most continued to use their own song collections. But at least I got most of the more frequently played songs together in one handy document, in keys that I can actually sing (the “suggested key”). It was well worth the effort, and a great way to learn the songs. In some cases, I took the liberty of editing some of the traditional lyrics for readability and sing-ability, especially the lyrics I got from the Web, and adding or changing a few chords, since many of the songs exist in several different versions anyway. Thanks to YouTube, I was able to correct a lot of mistakes. Some of the songs are still under copyright protection, so if I’ve given a wrong attribution, please send me a note so I can correct the error. A thousand apologies if that is the case. This book is intended for private use only, not for commercial publication. The chords are written in Nashville notation (well, sort of), so transposing is simple.
