The Medusa Fora

Reading James Fearnley's book, he mentions that Darryl Hunt had a mixtape of Irish music which went on to influence the album 'Rum Sodomy & The Lash'.
He mentions some songs including:

Brendan Shine - Catch me if you can
Dermot O'Brien - Connemara Rose

Anyone know of more songs on this influential tape?

God I must have heard that tape a hundred times in the Poguemobile, but the weird thing is, I can't remember what was on it. I'm pretty sure "Peggy Gordon" sung by Luke Kelly was on there though.

Didn't he also have a tape that was just James Jameson bass lines? Think i read that in the Carole Clerk book (unless that was some other band i'm thinking about...)

I bought a couple of those at the souvenir shop at Motown (Hitsville) in Detroit and gave Darryl one of them. It's a book/tape. Motown were also unloading their Martin Luther King speeches album at the time. Bought a bunch of those too.

Been reading the box set and noticed James mentions more of the tunes on the tape.

Beginning to slowly compile this thing!

Brendan Shine - Catch me if you can
Dermot O'Brien - Connemara Rose
Dermot O'Brien - The old Claddagh ring
Luke Kelly - Peggy Gordon
The Dubliners - Never wed an old man
The Dubliners - Finnegans Wake
Whiskey you're the devil
Muirshin Durkin
Seamus Ennis
The Bothy Band
The Clancy Brothers

Any help with the Seamus Ennis tune Philip?

Is Darryl himself ever on this forum?
