07 Sep 05 - 08:09 AM (#1558382) Subject: JF Murphy and Salt From: Snoozer I am wondering if anyone has any information regarding a group from around the 70s, called "JF Murphy and Salt"? They were a celtic rock, blue grass type band who were awesome, but no one I talk to remembers them. They had an album that I know of, but not sure if they were successful. I am pretty sure they were from Ireland. Anybody hear of them? |
