Loved this band so much as a kid. They used to spend the summer in a holiday park across the road from where I lived. Used to hang outside on their porch and listen to them jam on acoustic guitars. Cool guys. I was about 10. Wow.

Another superb album from a band featured on the jukebox.A must for any Pink Floyd fans.If anyone should take over,then it might as well be them.Some sounds also remind me of the Ozric Tentacles, one of my bands when I was young.

RE:Voodoo Loons Clown of all Guestbooks wrote on 2008-04-26 00:00:00:
I commented personally about their album, by leaving a comment on their Myspace dooda. I would actually need more than the 255 characters allowed here to describe my feelings about it. Inb few words, just go out an get it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really liked the song from Simple Kid here and all the stuff on MySpace sounds really good, good lead to a CD purchase. He has a very professional MySpace site and has done out his main website in the same style, worth checking out.

I purchased "Euphobia" and am quite enjoying it. Rocks good and hard up front, then starts taking on more layers as they introduce mandolins, piano, and so forth. Where are the shows???

Shame about the sound quality on the cork gig - when it comes to live gigs mobile phones are even worse for quality than the rolling stones mobile! The Deis Roc gig.. well thats an amazing delivery - Irish sung with passion He sings it like he means it!

Phil Lynott was simply the best musical talent to come out of Ireland. The music will live forever. Are you out there?

RE:Horslips Jim Nelis wrote on 2005-08-09 00:00:00:
Fantastic stamp, long overdue, but features Declan Sinnott and not the definitive lead guitarist Johnny Fean. The best Irish band to ever grace a stage.

Nice job Aidan, but spell check on LOCKHART.

I became aquainted with Barry and his music via an old Rory tribute site maybe 10 years ago (Barry, has it been that long!!). Not only a tremendous player, but one the genuine good people of this world. The music rocks!

Great musician. Was a good friend of my uncles and I am very pleased to see him included on this list!

Tracks on The Peace Within are rockin, soulful or anthems, but all fill me up! I hear touches of Skynyrd, Stones, Gallagher, Knopfler, Fean and the Fureys (Frank the Belfast piper). Glad his music and I found each other. Romance from the start XOX.

I used to listen in the car but it made me speed, so good news about the mp3. Both Absolutely Live albums areà areà,well the best thing to do is go to BarryÆs site and listen to the generous clips from the albums.

The first song I heard from the BMC band was ôSomeone I used to Knowö. It set me on fire from the first moment and I really love the false ending (watch out for that). When I got an MP3 player it was the first song I put on it, and itÆs still on the play

Right now weÆve got that out of the way I can proceed. I do love BarryÆs music and I do remember the first time I saw him play more than 25 years ago! (opps, now IÆve done it, IÆve given away BarryÆs age, this isnÆt going well at all! IÆll start again)

Your right there Barry Phil said he didn't want to be seen as Heavy Metal or even Punk he would rather tell a story. Phil Lynott was a poet and ooh some much more - The Rocker!

RE:Host Lee Templeton wrote on 2005-07-26 00:00:00:
Speak of the Devil! I HAVE just heard this album last nite, but crashed due to jetlag. Will listen again. Beautiful album art though! Spent hours at Heathrow airport getting acquainted with it!

RE:Host Joe Forde wrote on 2005-07-26 00:00:00:
I have never heard this album and would like to.

RE:Barry McCabe Lee Templeton wrote on 2005-07-26 00:00:00:
Barry's version of "Move It On Over" from Absolutely Live, Vol 2 is one kickin' track!

RE:The Radiators From Space Lee Templeton wrote on 2005-07-26 00:00:00:
And while I was there, and on the way to a Johnny Fean gig, I got to listen to Phil and the boys singing "The Hucklebuck" on another CD. Too cool for words!

RE:The Radiators From Space Lee Templeton wrote on 2005-07-26 00:00:00:
Just got back from a business trip to find a package with The Radiators new EP Summer Season. Fantastic! "Hinterland" is a great song.

Probably the best live band in the country - make sure you see them and you'll know what everybody's talking about.

RE:Taste Barry Mc Cabe wrote on 2005-07-20 00:00:00:
It's one of my few regrets - not being old enough to have seen Taste play live!!

RE:Black 47 Kathy Dunn wrote on 2005-07-20 00:00:00:
Black 47 is one of the best bands to see live. Lead singer/songwriter Larry Kirwin puts his heart and soul into every song and every show.

They generated excitement outside the pale , imagined through English rock/pop magazines and brought to life in the dancehalls of my youth...great music ..They had something very special

RE:The Thrills Lee Templeton wrote on 2005-07-19 00:00:00:
Yes, I know what you are thinking. But an Irish band that hung out on a California beach and wrote songs inspired by the Beach Boys sound! How could I resist THAT?

A brilliant band with an incredible guitar player,Mr Johnny Fean no less- the man who invented celtic rock guitar and remains the true master of this style. Wonderful memories of such a fine and original band of musicians- hence, great that they are back.

RE:Barry McCabe Aidan wrote on 2005-07-18 00:00:00:
Barry's "The Peace Within" is an excellent album which breaks new ground in blues rock by incorporating the uilleann pipes (by Davey Spilanne!). Oh and thanks Barry for being one of the first visitors to this site to add your comments!

RE:Thin Lizzy Barry Mc Cabe wrote on 2005-07-18 00:00:00:
Even though they could be heavy they were always melodic. IMO, that set them apart from a lot of other groups in the same genre.

RE:Rory Gallagher Barry Mc Cabe wrote on 2005-07-18 00:00:00:
That heading just about says it all. Rory made me want to become a musician and I had the pleasure of playing with him in the famous Paradiso club in Amsterdam, Holland!

The first Irish rock group to do it from home. They made great music and they made us feel proud to be Irish!
