[@MrMicklethal]

I saw these guys in the U.S. in 1979, they played a local college in NYS. I bought tickets because I liked the name of the band! lol I was glad I did, they sounded great that night.

[@shaunfarber1334]

Embarrassed to say I didn't know of their existence until yesterday. Now I'm a fan.

My first time seeing this and what a treat. Such a great song. Could be an Irish National Anthem, that and Dearg Doom...and in some respects they are, as everybody with a drop of Irish blood knows the words deep in their souls and can't help but sing along. Good to see them getting a nice traditional Cork welcome here also. They look so neat and clean-cut here compared with the footage of them from back around 1974. Johnny Fean even reminds me a bit of a young Bruce Springsteen, and Barry looks like a shorter-haired version of Tom Petty. Anyway I do think they are national treasures. Many bands have come along since and been hyped up, but they are the original and still the best, and with no airs and graces either.

[@sipower1965]

Just awesome ... not too many songs rock a lead flute .... a real anthem!

[@jimwilgar9644]

You have heard of Jerthro Tull?

[@BaronMichaelDeBlone1066]

@@jimwilgar9644 Horslips certainly have, they covered Locomotive Breath.

[@thomasskeffington4539]

Great to see an audience totally into it. Not a phone in sight.

[@johnalex6309]

1979. A "portable" phone required a battery pack and transceiver that took up its own chair back then. They used to look like doctors' house call bags; if you remember that rather common event long gone by. By the time "Lethal Weapon" was filmed in 1986, portables looked like grey bricks; satellite phones often still do.

[@werecrocodile]

Rest in Peace Johnny Feen. It's funny, because I hadn't listened to this in months, and I played it earlier. Then a few hours later on the radio the news broke of Johnny's death.

I Randomly heard this song somewhere and have loved it every since! Epic tune.

[@bloodboughtbigphilr8266]

Ireland's answer to Jethro Tull. Good stuff.

[@johnareidy]

Jim lockhart plays a silver flute that's the only comparison horslips alot of traditional tunes and instruments marvellous live groupn

[@bloodboughtbigphilr8266]

@johnareidy Not so much comparable in the end result of their overall sound but the blending of their respective country's folk/traditional with rock. Of course, the connecting prominence of the silver flute too . Tull and Horslips are 2 superb groundbreaking bands.

[@carmelcrowley158]

Love this, high up on the mountain, trouble with a capital T. I am a man that cant be sold. Music mastroe.

[@paulmullins3280]

Bought "The Book Of Invasions" (in Brisbane) as an import album back in the very late '70's. Great album....terrific band. I don't think they made it over to here.
