Topic Records are very much still going. The issue number was 12TS209. There was a time when Topic hoped to keep every record they released in catalogue, but I think the first great oil crisis put paid to that ambition.

Some tracks appeared on compilation albums. A Living Thing claims to have downloadable samples, including "The Granemore Hare", but I couldn't get them to play.

Irish Voices has "P for Paddy".

There was a copy on eBay last year - £5! - described as follows:-

The Irish County Four - Songs & Ballads & Instrumental Tunes From Ulster (UK Topic - Stereo - 12TS209 - 1971 - Ex / Ex)

Fantastic condition copy of this scarce album. This young band consists of Brian Bailie (vocals, flute, whistle), Valerie Bailie (vocals, guitar, whistle, bones), Leslie 'Jess' Harper (vocals, guitar, mandolin, bodhran) and Trevor Stewart (vocals, pipes). Reportoire includes jigs, reels, traditional and industrial songs of Ireland. Sleeve notes by A.L. Lloyd.

Non laminated sleeve is clean with no creases at all and just some very faint rubbing at the toop - nothing that detracts from the cover though. Edges and corners are tight and square. Blue & silver Topic labels are clean and free from any spindle marks. Heavyweight vinyl is clean and shiny with no marks at all. A lovely copy !.

This album comes from a collection that has been stored carefully unplayed for 30 years.

(For some reason the entry remained till now on the Spanish eBay site - came up as "non e disponible", but Google still has the page cached.
