Has anyone out there heard of a folk group called "The Bards"? My father claims he heard a song called "Lanigans Ball" on CBC radio and is begging for a copy of the CD for x-mas. Personally, I think he is hearing things but I've got to try.

Thanks.

Yep!

The Bards have been on the road for quite some time and their version of "Lanigan's Ball" was a hit record in Ireland many moons (10-15 years?) ago. It was also previously recorded by Christy Moore among others.

I don't know where you'll find a copy of their CD('s) but if you try any of the Irish music stores on the web you'll probably find them. I'll try and get you a couple of likely URL's.
