The Chieftains 2

‘The Chieftains 2′ was recorded over a weekend in Edinburgh’s Craighall Studios, where the technology was far superior than anything in Ireland at the time. The album features the first recorded work by 17th/18th century composer Turlough O’ Carolan, as well as ‘The Foxhunt’, which paved the way to Moloney’s future folk orchestrated works with The Chieftains.
