Thanks for that. I only ever had an incomplete set and this nicely fills the gaps.


Not quite the full radio programmes though. A copy of the lps . A friend had tapes of the full radio programmes, I heard his tapes in 1981 or so but never managed to get a copy. At the time he said RTE had wiped the original tapes and copies were made illegally by a soundtechnician before it was done but I don't think that's actually true. Made for a good story though. It would be nice to have the lot, with O'Riada's comments and opinions (I do have the book). I have some clips of him going off on pianos in traditional music, which is quite fun to listen to actually. It involves him playing a solo take of Patrck Kelly playing Banish Misfortune and then repeating it, providing a clunky piano accompaniment to it, just to make a point

On the subject of O'Riada, his grandaughter Doireann ni Glacain, has done a documentary on him, which is being heavily promoted at the minute. There was a big interview with her and her mother, Sorcha ní Riada, this morning on Miriam O Callaghan's Sunday morning programme. I only caught a small bit of it while driving but it should be online somewhere*. If you're into that sort of thing, ofcourse.

Here's two different links to the same files. I don't have an account to any file sharing sites so it may not stay up long. Perhaps there are better sites that Im unaware of
