Affectionately know in Ireland as Thristy Hoor..
Intrigued if the non-Irish listeners can follow the clever lyrics about local parish-pump dealings and crooked politicians from the early 80s

Whoah, haven't heard Christy Moore since I was in Shizuoka '88-'90 and this colleague of mine came back from a long study and stay in the U.K. with lots and lots of great tunes, and some of them, such as Christy M, Mano Negra, Les Negresses Vertes, I was hearing for the first time, and of course, it blew my mind.  All of his imports were good, but I do remember being struck most mightily, as was he, by the often staggeringly sad and illustrative poetry set to music and sung by this great Irish legend I hadn't yet known of (I recall many snippets of many songs, the titles all forgotten now, but one with the refrain of "Misha, Misha, God Help Her," was very powerful indeed), and as my copied cassette got damaged shortly after, I haven't heard this voice since — until now.  Great to hear RP confirming the magical workings of the infinite network of timely connections among Time and Space and All and Everything In Between.

There are a number of better examples of Christy Moore's work available, but I suppose this will have to do for now. This is the first time ever hearing him on any radio that I can remember.

Loved Planxty and 'twas a joy to hear this one. What a combination with the Jimmy Buffet song.

Don't really care for "talk songs."

Big fan. Along with Andy Irvine and Donal Lunny he is one of the pioneers of modern Irish folk music individually and with bands like Planxty and Patrick Street.

Wait...whao..what happened?  Did my music app suddenly switch to the Thistle & Shamrock?  
As always, shaking up the line-up keeps our ears...er..on our..toes. 
Nice move, RP.
