Happy St. Patrick's Day!

For your listening pleasure as St. Patrick's Day nears, I have added a collection of Irish songs to the vinyl digitization project. If you are not fluent with your Gaelic, English translations are available in the notes for the album. I hope that you enjoy Deirdre Ni Fhlionn's lovely voice.
