@Izzie,
We (that is, the entire population of Ireland) lost interest in Christy Burke after he went commercial! His daughter became Miss World - did you know that? His early stuff is filed away in memory along with Meat Loaf as one of three tapes I owned before the onset of the Celtic Tiger (RIP). The third, for some reason, was Zenyata Mandata by The Police which only had one good song on it that I recall -
Canary in a Coalmine. Oh, and the family's music collection was completed by all 4 (or was it 5?) versions of Simon & Garfunkel's Greatest Hits (Greatest Hits, Best of..., The S & G Collection and The Concert in Central Park Vols. 1 & 2) all of which contained the EXACT SAME PLAYLISTS! Happy days!!!
