Dear Dave , I was shocked and a little disappointed at the lack of info so we’ll give you 4 out of ten for content.For the ultimate detail on the birth of Irish rock in the 60’s and 70’s follow the links from our Rock Cornerstone article on the Ryan O’Riain 22’s ‘Musical Interlude’ section with the cream of the Irish crop on the supergroups one page and the originality award page.
Geography lesson: Ireland is actualy a large Island to the WEST of Britain not the north (I think you were getting mixed up with Iceland!)..it is also the first european country to the east of the United States.If you follow the links on the 22 I think you’ll realise that Horslips are responsible for everything. A site which scores 100 out of ten for detail accuracy and content on real Irish rock is also Irish Rockers.com – it’s a top tip for any future edits on real Irish Rock full of historical surprises.
Best of luck with the truth,
Mairtin
