Flook - Pressed For Time (live on the Blackstaff Sessions)

Live on the Blackstaff Sessions, BBC Northern Ireland, 2006.

[@jdunne19]

at the height of their powers - in any genre - they were simply the greatest live quartet performing on the planet...

[@usfenderfsdlx]

the best rhythm section mankind has ever seen, or at least one of them.

[@Rammadhan]

I`m really..SHOCKED. That`s awesome! I just love that sound. Everyone in Flook is extremly skilled and got a perfect technique. I wish i could play the guitar like Ed. Just: WOW!

[@lecbm]

Brian Finnegan is totally awesome!!! Flook rules!

[@armcelt]

Gráda (very similar but with songs too) and Nuala Kennedy's last album,HOMERIC!! The first album's of irish-american group SOLAS with Seamus Egan at flute are great too

[@Setanta2006]

Thanks for this.

[@beandolan]

Two of my favourites as well. Try Mairtin O'Connor, Seamie O'Dowd & Cathal Hayden, they just brought out a new CD recently called Crossroads, great stuff!

[@PaddyIrishGirl]

"Beoga" and "Slide" :)

[@Lochbesda16]

he is playing an E flat whistle but normally this tune would be in A because its a highland piping tune

[@thorgills346]

Just a note, they broke up in 2008.

[@usfenderfsdlx]

WHAT is the make of that awesome sounding bodhran?

[@brandofalcon]

Does anyone know what key this is in. I believe the guitar tuning that Ed Boyd is using is DADGAD but I'm not sure of the key. My guess is A.

[@tayuelu]

SOBERBIO!!

[@kevinmeehan71]

@W0bbl344 have ya seen his solos john joe kelly unreal!!

[@onlineacademyofirishmusic]

Sounds mancunian to me, like listening to a TB303 - Lovin' it

[@breizhlander1]
