Seán Báite	'Songs of The Irish Travellers' reissued (61* d)	RE: Irish Travellers	07 Jan 08
Heard the programme alright on Radio Eireann (via internet) where a few tracks from that LP of Tom Munnelly's recordings were played - great stuff indeed. Reminded me of a film I managed to see down here in the wilds of France 'Pavee Lackeen' where a few of the non-music issues brought up in this thread are dealt with (not too much music in the film though, sadly). Irish music would definitely be far poorer if the travellers had not kept traditions alive that others behind their lace curtains felt were beneath them.. Also puts me thinking of the Pecker Dunne... where do you go to get recordings of that fella ?? And mention of Hugh Shields bings me back to my college days - is he still alive ?
