LCB LPs reissued ? Dream on, I'm afraid. The masters are owned by the bleep bleeping Decca Record Corporation. Say no more.

Seán will indeed be playing at the Liverpool Irish Festival. I don't have the details to hand but the organisers are bringing a number of Clare musicians over and they'll be playing in something called The Clare Sessions. Of course Clare is Seán's second home.

Incidentally, as the sound clips indicate, he is playing as well as ever. A solo CD of Seán ? That would be a damned good idea.
