Irish Folk Music (another O'Neill book) is coming online, same place. Bill Haneman's turning out very nice pipes, too.

Merry Xmas, Part 1.

Hey, you can only submit one discussion per day. What kind of weird rule is that?

Somebody post this, willya:

Michael Coleman's Complete Recordings available.

From http://www.juneberry78s.com/prstkcds/mo33000s.htm
I've looked at this list before and never really connected the dots, since I have dubs of the Complete Coleman already. Juneberry Norm'll run you off copies of all his stuff on four CDs. Dunno about the prices. You can also get all of flute player Tom Morrison and Early Recordings of Irish Music - Volume 1 and 2. Cool stuff!

Merry Xmas, Part 2

Any question of copyrights with the material Juneberry would `run you off`for a price?Does he or she in fact own the rights to Colemans music?

Re: O'Neill's Irish Minstrels and Musicians available online

a quick glance shows that they are in the public domain, meaning that no one owns the rights. unless of course, they are not in the public domain as is assumed, and then he or she most certainly does not have the right to burn them.

i wanted to use a program to download the whole lot of irish recordings... but they have stupid names like, "numbernumberletterletter" which would take more time and effort ot relabel than its worth.

From Juneberry, you mean? Most all of his stuff has ID3 tags attached, with artist/title/discographical info already built-in, which shows up when you run the file in media players like Winamp.
There's also programs like MP3Tag which will let you rewrite file names from tags.
Norm has a Public Domain Disclaimer in case you have the willies about this.

Hurray for Bill Haneman. That's a great book. Especially if you have O'Neill's 1850, you can learn something about the people from whom O'Neill collected.
