Folk Heroes CD The Ultimate Irish Folk Collection

CD Only £11.49  

A fantastic Irish folk collection as you would expect from an RTE production. They have managed to get the best versions of the best songs sung by those who sing them best on this excellent album. Who sings “Grace” better than Jim McCann, who sings “The Town I Loved So Well” better than Luke Kelly and so on throughout this album. Thrown into the mix are a few less well know bands and artists so you get the chance to broaden your horizons a little without the expense of an album you might never listen to again. A great Irish Folk CD for any collection and a great gift. As you can guess we highly recommend it. At only £11.49 for 30 tracks and 2 CDs it is great value as well.
