This is another massive tip of the hat to 1_aga<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Late night chats give the best exchanges of coolness.<\/p>\n

For the longest time I was a dancer in the SCA. Eventually the path I was on and the overall path of the SCA seemed to go in different directions. (This is not a call for debate on that topic at all)<\/p>\n

Some of my favourite music were English Country Dances and Irish Reels.<\/p>\n

Well, tonight I was introduced to The Prodigals.<\/p>\n

One critic describes them as:
\nImagine the Pogues falling under the rhythmic spell of the bass ‘n’ drum culture and you’ll have some idea of how the Prodigals approach Celtic music.<\/i><\/p>\n

But you decide for yourself…<\/p>\n

First listen to “Blackeyed Gypsy<\/a>” (The suggestion is to picture the abduction and courtship by the rogue, in Crouching Tiger)<\/p>\n

Then try “The Open Reel<\/a>” About halfway in, I think I may have had a musical orgasm.<\/p>\n

I love these guys and now must buy more music.<\/p>\n
