Walt, I don't know where you are but there is a mail-order source in Canada, Back Porch Music, at http://www.bpm.on.ca/ You can order online or by mail. I just found out, to my pleasure, that they have the CD of Archie Fisher's Man With A Rhyme.

When buying CD's, why not concentrate on recommended bands or artists, and get their CD's out of the folk section of the record store. I'm sure many here or on the Celtic music newsgroup could recommend good Irish artists. Many of those anonymous taped compilations are just nonsense recorded for the ordinary person to play on Saint Patrick's Day.
