I don't know how many of you are aware of this version from Clannad together with the 'Fairies Hornpipe', but their version of 'Off to California' is really very refreshing and much more interesting, at least for me, than the older version.
My wife got this CD out of the library a few days ago by co-incidence .. so, I sticks it on and I'm thinking that's a very curious setting of 'Off to California' - must be a Donegal version or something. Didn't think anymore about it, till I saw above! So, The Stack of Wheat then.
Clannad's version of 'Off to California'
Clannad's version of 'Off to California'
Hi there,
I don't know how many of you are aware of this version from Clannad together with the 'Fairies Hornpipe', but their version of 'Off to California' is really very refreshing and much more interesting, at least for me, than the older version.
Check it out
Regards

'No, you hav eot check out a Clannad CD or MP3 with tunes on it.'
I'd be very worried if there was a Clannad CD or MP3 which didn't have tunes on it.
Have you been at the devil's buttermilk, Shylock?

Well, wrap up your joints more tightly! I was always a 4-Rizla-man myself.
