Random Playlist : Songs to Make your Tea

1195906488_capercaillie-cascade I have been busy with work . Also been catching sleep as much as I can. These days having a complete hours of sleep is a luxury. I hate looking like a yo-yo in the middle of the job. Anyway, since there is nothing new to cover for now, I want to share with you some random play list I have . I am an album guy. I am used to playing the whole album as compared to shuffled tracks from different artists. I think an album tells a whole story. Yes there will always be weak tracks and memorable ones. But then again weak or strong each one contributes to the whole picture. So here are my lists of albums and songs that get played in any order depending on my mood.

1. Cascade-Capercaillie .This is the debut album of Scotland’s legendary group. Karen Matheson already displays maturity and good instinct in this beautifully crafted 1984 release.

2. Mummer’s Dance-Loreena McKennitt. The song that brought  mainstream attention, from The Book of Secrets.

3. Song of the Sandman-Enya. I always have this song mostly before I go to bed.

4.The Wind that Shakes the BarleyDead Can Dance.

5. Sea of Silence-Kate Price. Love her exotic instruments and ethereal vocals.

6. Puirt-a-Beaul Set-Julie Fowlis

7. She Moved through the Fair-Lothlorien

8. Wandering Fish-Kila

9. One of Us-Heather Dale

10. In Concert(1978)- Clannad. This is the first attempt of the group at live sound. The songs are mostly traditional. This is the Clannad before all the layering and haunting productions but nonetheless still excellent.

You might want to check out Irish Music Magazine for new releases and news. Here’s also the video of Riverdance. Amazing dancers. Cheers!
