It looks nice but I don’t get any sound from this one.

That's really odd. I've played it several times tonight. Maybe try refresh.

Yep. Her voice is as clear as a bell.

Sounds more like Irish (must have been right on the border).

(Very nice).

Over the last few years I have developed an affinity for Irish music, but not so much for the poignant stuff.

I like the lively, upbeat stuff such as this:

https://youtu.be/hlWTASnnft4 (Whiskey in the Jar by the Dubliners)

And this:

https://youtu.be/j9jbdgZidu8(Fairytale of New York by the Pogues)

And I absolutely love this one, though it isn't really an Irish group, it's just done in the Irish style, but it is absolutely hilarious!

Not in Gaelic, but beautiful nonetheless.

That figures, since the Scots came from Ireland. :^)

When I heard that one, I realized I’d heard it on YT, really like that one.

My first experience of Clannad was a used vinyl copy of “Dulaman”, which was at the time not very old at all. :^)

I suppose that it was inevitable that I wound up deep off into old, really old, folk recorded by modern artists, because the music of the late 1960s-early 1970s was very exploratory. Oh, and I liked Tull (still do).

If you like upbeat Celtic folk music, you'll probably like these:

Julie Fowlis - Hug Air a' Bhonaid Mhoir (Scottish Gaelic)

The Broomfield Hill - Malinky

Julie Fowlis - Òganaich Uir a Rinn M' Fhàgail
