I see a name pop up on another thread of a folklorist, Fintan Valley. This man recorded a cd/tape at one stage with a singer called Tim Lyons. The Cd was called "Big Guns And Hairy Drums" or vice versa, I have tried on and off to locate a copy, to no avail, there is reference to it on the net alright and a few shops list it as in stock, but when you look for a copy, hey presto, it's out! apparantly it seems to have been just a small production and release, one run & no more. As the other thread shows Fintan is impossible to find. any ideas where i might locate a copy of this cd?

I find most of your postings so vile, obnoxious and mean spirited that I'm inclned to leave you twisting in the wind on this one, but that would be a disservice to Fintan & Tim. try here:

or Celtic Grooves lists it, maybe Philippe can't get it any more though, haven't tried to order it from him.

Can anyone help me obtain a copy of this CD?
I don't think that the above link is still accurate considering it's still listed in old money (irish instead of euro).
E-mail me at [e-mail] if you can help, Thanks.
