Album Details for [The Kilfenora Céilí Band] by [The Kilfenora Ceili Band]
| Artist Name | [The Kilfenora Ceili Band] |
| Album Title | [The Kilfenora Céilí Band] |
| Source and other information | Legacy International CD 308, n.d. This CD reissue - perhaps unauthorized? - is presented as by anonymous musicians, under the generic title "Irish Traditional Fiddle Music. Reel, Jigs and Polkas / Cieli [sic] Band Music." But my research using various library records and the page <http://www.kilfenoraceiliband.com/history.htm> confirms that this is actually the Kilfenora Ceili Band's 1974 album, originally published by EMI and in the US by Everest. This was either their second or third album (can anyone tell me whether their other early-1970s album, "Clare Céilí," was made before or after this 1974 one?). |
