"Sean Cannon is probably the best."
Well that may be because I haven't tried it yet! snicker

Interesting comment about The Dubliners, there.
I always thought that The Dubliners were to The Clancy's what The Rolling Stones were to the Beatles.
"The Bad Boys" you might say. Both the Corries and The Dubliners early albums were pretty raw as far as production & musicianship goes. However, both groups managed to evolve in both of those areas to produce the quality of work that such a huge fan base deserved.
We have better tools on our lap tops than they had to work with in studios, back then.
