Planxty - Planxty (1973)I realize 95 percent of Prefix readers are probably going to hate Planxty, an extremely influential Irish folk group that formed on the tail end of Britain's own traditional-folk revival. But hopefully the other 5 percent will see the beauty and skill involved in this track and seek out the brilliant full-length debut it's contained on. Yeah, there's the Irish twang and the bagpipes, but there's also amazing instrumentation, heartfelt lyrics delivered honestly, and high-energy performances that lift this above the average folk music. A great record that's as good today as it probably was thirty years ago.


i like guiness and jameson's but hate bagpipes. how does that affect my odds of liking this?
