Tune Req: Brian Hart's CD An Lochin...

For those who don't know him, Brian Hart (Brían Ó hAirt) is the vocalist in the group Bua.

A mouthpiece for the promotion of unaccompanied song, Brían Ó hAirt's anomalous and evocative voice stands as a testament to the power of tradition while his ability to share the mind's eye of an older generation of singers has afforded him great acclaim at his age—most notably that of an All-Ireland champion singer. Brían has performed extensively in North America at gatherings such as the Milwaukee Irish Festival, Philadelphia's Traditional Irish Music Festival, ICONS, the Mission Folk Music Festival and the Traditional Singers Club of the Twin Cities , and in Ireland at Lá na nAmhrán, Cruinniu na mBád, the Ennis Trad Festival and Cuairt na mBàrd. With a voice Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh of Danú hails as "beautiful…sweet and full of sensitivity," his recordings have been featured on many radio programmes in Ireland including Céilí House on RTÉ and Lán a' Mhála on RnG as well as on various NPR programmes in the States. Brían is also a noted sean-nós dancer and instrumentalist of accordion, concertina and whistle and plays with Chicago-based quintet Gan Bua, whom Irish Music Magazine laude for their distinct talent and innovation in the vein of traditional music.

Years ago, I discovered his music on Cantaria.

I found the tracks from his first University CD.

The problem is that I can't seem to find out where they come from.

All of the sites don't seem to work.

I've private messaged the person who posted them twice and private messaged the admin once.

Nobody seems to be listening to me!

I even asked BRIAN HIMSELF ON MYSPACE and he declined in his reply by saying "I'm working on an album to be released in Winter, so stay tuned!" (so I gave up, not wanting to lose favor of a great sean nos singer).

Here is the link...don't know if that helps or not.
Right now, I've got a whole list of old style music that I want to blow my Christmas and Birthday money on, and finding the one CD in the world that I fell in love with would make my day.

If there is one thing in the world I can't live without, it's this.

Yet another rare find.

So, please? I'm asking with all my being, who can help?

I'll reward you with a megaupload link...or a friend request message...anything (except money.That's beyond me).

I've tried to FaceTime him but I'm told I'll use minutes if I call first. It looks like a UK number and I'm from the US. Unfortunately, I haven't listened to enough Last.fm (and really don't know how to listen to stuff that people post) to be able to private message this person.

Use Facebook Messenger when you're in a WiFi setting. Or Google Hangout, again, from a WiFi setting. Or Skype.
