I am a regular viewer of "Come West Along the Road" on RTE One, a program which consists of archive film of Irish music and song. I am in England, so pick it up on RTE player.

In the most recent program there was a short documentary (16 mins.) on Sarah Makem made in 1976. Much of the documentary is filmed in the home of Sarah and her husband Peter, have a look, I'm sure you'll enjoy.

It's available on RTE player until 24th February.

Yes, Thanks Jim. Don't know why I didn't think of the blue clicky myself.

Musical Traditions has released a wonderful 3-CD set of Sara Makem---long overdue and much appreciated. Available from CAMSCO, of course ($30+S&H)

Rog, I tried searching on RTE for "Sarah Makem", but nothing came up. Can you provide a link, or is the one Jim posted the same?

Topic will release another Sarah Makem CD, The Heart Is True, at the end of March. It is compiled by Rod Stradling too and is meant to complement the Musical Traditions 3-CD set.

Iona: Yes, just use Jim's link.

Yes Dick, Jim's link is the one, but strangely, I found I had to click the other program 27/1/12 and then go back to the one broadcast on 3/2/12, to get it to play.
Hope this helps.

Wonder if it's anything to do with the website blocking or partially blocking IP addresses access?

Rog - thanks for the tip. I gave up trying to load the program last night, but doing what you suggested it loaded straight away today!

Thanks again

Mick
