*sigh* Irish Folk Music

**Jason** · 10-20-2009, 07:34 AM

It seems so hard to find Irish Folk music sometimes. I love the music of The Pouges, The Dubliners, and even the modern version with groups like Flogging Molly and Dropkick Murphy's. But I'm trying to add to my collection. It seems difficult trying to find new groups. Maybe the genre is just too small.

Then there are the songs which I love that I cannot find on CD. For example the song Bugger Off. WARNING: do not google or youtube this song unless you want some rowdy language. I was sent this song in the late 90's, maybe early 00's. It took forever to find out who sings it, and I still cannot find it on a CD, or legal mp3 download site such as Amazon.com.

Anyway, here are some videos for you to enjoy.

YouTube - Great Big Sea - Scolding Wife

YouTube - DROPKICK MURPHYS - BOYS ON THE DOCKS

Another excellent Irish Band is the 'Keltic Cowboys'. An wonderful track, but with the same warning as above....
