Listening to Irish Music at the Shop Just in Time for St. Patrick's Day

By -
It's been a while since I've heard some good traditional Irish music so today at the shop we put on rediscovered gem: The Boys of the Lough. This album was recorded at Passim in Cambridge in 1974 and it sounds great!

The Boys still tour, and in fact they'll be playing South Carolina this spring. If they come up to Massachusetts I'd love to hear them live.

We didn't have any Irish Mist on hand to sip while listening, but I'll be sure to stock up come Friday for St. Patty's Day!

    Great post on Listening to Irish Music at the Shop Just in Time for St. Patrick's Day. Listening to Top Electric Drum Sets is great too though. This audio is so cool and really touching and motivating, good post.

Seems fall is really in the air for everyone going by this week's most favorited items on Offbeat Avenue. 1. First on the list is not surprisingly, with Halloween coming up so fast, our vintage Gremlins movie Gizmo costume pattern! Still factory-folded, this is in excellent shape and is at a great price at $30. No one at the party will have this costume! UPDATE: This pattern sold September 12! 2. Next is our vintage Argus camera with leather case. For photographer buffs, the Argus is a film camera that produces sharp high quality pictures and was once one of the best selling cameras in the U.S. It's durable and relatively easy to repair (unlike digital cameras of today). 3. Too early to be thinking about Thanksgiving? Not for our shoppers. Our huge vintage Turkey Platter got tons of favorites and views this week. Perfect for your old-fashioned Thanksgiving. 4. The time to dress up for the weather is fall and we've got what everyone wants: silver lam
