GUEST,PJ Curtis | Help: why did Planxty disband? (22) | RE: Help: why did Planxty disband? | 15 Feb 00 |
Donal Lunny was the first to depart the band in early '74 to co-found the Bothy band in 1975. Christy Moore was next to go to be replaced by Johnny Moynihan and Paul Brady. Brady never recorded with them. The reformed Planxty 0f 1979 had Matt Molloy on flute and Bill(Riverdance)Whelan on K-brds and recorded the fantastic After The Break for Tara. Why did they disband in '76? Ask Polydor...their label of the time. PJ Curtis. |
