Big Mick

His guitarmanship (is that a word?) may not be top notch but his use of the bodhran, without a beater IIRC,is some of the most sympathetic and skillful use of the instrument I have had the pleasure to witness.

Middle of the Island and Well Below the Valley sung only with his own bodhran (where can I find a fada on my keyboard)accompaniment make the hairs on my arms stand upright.

Sure, there are better singers too - but as you say his interpretation and timing are superb.

He has been off my Iriver far too long.
