Best of Dervish

From the Great Wall of China to the Wailing Wall in Israel, from the Rock in Rio festival to the Kennedy Center, Dervish is by far Ireland's best exponent of traditional music! With seven CDs and two videos released since 1991, their popularity has grown enormously. This compilation presents twenty-three songs in both English and Irish. Most are traditional Irish songs, some well known, and some long-lost gems researched and revived by Dervish. Contemporary songs such as Boots of Spanish Leather by Bob Dylan, Fair Haired Boy by Brendan Graham, and The Lag's Song by Ewan McColl are also included. This is a "must-have" book for anyone interested in traditional Irish song!
