Celanova Square is an older Calico album (but it may be on re-release?). They released a second album Songdogs a couple of years ago.

Both are well worth a listen.

I accessed this thread enthusiastically, as I like Calico's music, and hadn't heard of them making a CD - and found it's a different band altogether. The Calico that I know are based in Leigh, Lancashire, and have been together under that name for twenty-odd years. I wonder if they know their name has been plagiarised?...

Wow!! Thanks Aidan for a great CD !! Listening (as I post) to my new Calico CD. If folks haven't checked out Pay the Reckoning or Red Hat Music they are definately missing some great stuff...

Thanks Again

PS ... while we're discussing Pay The Reckoning, I've got a free copy of "The Mirthical Reel" by Steve Mulhern and Ian Laws to give away in the latest competition, which closes St Patrick's Day ...

Fiendishly difficult question ... but there will be a consolation prize for the most off-the-wall wrong answer!

Got the free CD it's very very good but no info whatsoever about the musicians or even a tune list, both would have been good.

Musicians are Diarmuid Moynihan (Uileann Pipes) Donncha Moynihan (Guitar) Tola Custy (Fiddle) and Pat Marsh (Bozouki). Deirdre Moynihan also now plays fiddle and sings with Calico, but I have a notion that she wasn't on the first album. John Moloney may also play bodhran on some tracks (He is certainly on their other album SongDogs). The album was produced by Declan Sinnot who may also contribute musically. The Moynihan family come from Cork and Pat Tola and John are all from Clare and live in Ennis. Many of the tunes are originals, composed by Diarmuid, I'm fairly sure that this info is all available on the Sleeve notes of the CD I have, but it may have been re-packaged for re-release.

Dave,

If you follow the link to Red Hat Music above, there's a lot more information, including a track listing for the CD.

Am I too late for this offer? I couldn't find anything about it on your website, Aidan.

Thanks,

Kat ...

The CDs went, by all accounts, like hotcakes! Hence I whipped the link off after a few days.

Thanks to the lads at red hat for their magnanimonus (and imaginative) gesture. Apologies to anyone who "missed the boat".
