Are there any other Afro Celt fans amongst you? I love the first 3 albums they did.

I don't want to discourage you here, but you should know that the Afro Celt Sound System sounds nothing like The Pogues, The Popes, Storm, etc. It's a lot of "African beats" combined with traditional "Celtic instruments" creating some kind of international flavored dance music.duncan disorderly wrote:Im going to look for that solo album now.The TOmmy MacManamon link has interested me cos Im learning Tenor Bnjo and he is my "axe hero"!
