Thanks to Mich Neilsen in Copenhagen for making me aware of this. Since Conal hasn’t been the most prolific of recording artistes, this must surely be of interest to some.
A live recording with Conal on flute, Dave Sheridan on fiddle and Benny McCarthy [ “Danu” ] on accordion. Good, lively stuff, and worthy of support.
THANKS THANKS THANKS!!!
no brainer, innit!
Thanks Kenny!
Yes, This is very good. You could think you’re in a pub listening to them in a session.
Sweet! His last album is one of my favorites!
I ordered my copy…
that’s simply too cool!
I downloaded from iTunes, listening to it now. If I close my eyes, it feels like I’m sitting near a great session!
HOLY CRAP!!! This is GREAT!
I downloaded direct from the Irish Trad Tunes site; worked a treat.
Did I mention I like the recording? 
Seriously, it’s brilliant. A mighty musical party. I can tell this is going to be one I wear out. Thanks so much, Kenny (and Mich)!!!
Just curious, Cathy - how are you going to “wear out” a downloaded recording ? 
[ I know exactly what you mean, though . ]
Well,if Kenny likes it,I reckon I’ll like it too … I just ordered my copy as well 
..
All the best to you Kenny … from Charlie in Australia … 
Mighty Conal O’Grada! The miracle happened again!
Nice nice nice cd, I can only complain that is not a 2 or 3 cd set!
Lucky me, I can just play it again!
I WANT MOOORE!
moreover, Imho better have an original cd than a medium quality download!
worth ALL the cents/pences I spent!
Bought through the website and recived in couple of days!
Great!
PS.
Thanks Mick, Thanks Kenny, Thank you Conal!
Can’t get a better endorsement than “Holy Crap!”
Anyone know of a source for Mr. O’Grada’s previous CD “Cnoc Bui”? ( I’m looking for the CD, not the mp3 download option.) None of the usual internet sources seem to have it in stock.
Thanks and best wishes.
Steve
You should be able to find it at CD baby.
Hi Steve,
You can get it on my website (www.conalograda.com)

p.s. thanks folks for all the positive feedback on the Raw Bar Collective recording. We had a mighty night recording it
(I’m relegated to answering my own posts…)
Thanks to those who responded here and by PM. All of the usual North American sources list this as “out of stock”. Don’t know why it didn’t immediately occur to me to go straight to the source.
Recently purchased “The Top of Coom” and had my own
moment. In my early and still steep learning/listening curve I hadn’t come across Mr. O’Grada’s playing. Landed up sitting in the parking lot so I could hear the final cuts of the third consecutive hearing of the CD. Now I begin to understand why John Skelton told a workshop at the Pipers Gathering that, “the Irish flute is a percussion instrument.” (I erroneously thought he meant to drive off the rhythmically challenged bodhran and bone players.)
Best wishes.
Steve
sometimes it’s better that way 
At least I’m not offended by the irony (usually)…
Best wishes.
Steve
I like that
