Thread Name: Celtic connections
Subject: RE: Celtic connections
It's a tenuous connection in many cases, and bloody invisible in others this Celtic Connection. World Music is nothing to do with it though, world music to me is the Buena Vista Social Club, and various great African musicians, also people like Mariza who has appeared at Womad and whom I love. I never saw any of the TV broadcasts from CC this year, having been put off by hours of wailing bagpipes from every where except the UK, in previous years. Personally I blame Andy Kershaw. ¦¬]
