The Transatlantic Anthology (Box Set)
Dubliners
Released:
Feb 2002
Label:
Sanctuary Records Fontana
To some, the Dubliners may sound hopelessly outdated, but these fierce musicians laid the groundwork for the Irish traditional music explosion that came after them. Ronnie Drew's vituperative croak, unadorned and authoritative, threw other singers under the bus, while the songs were by turns bawdy, irreverent, tragic and sentimental. The band charted out a magnificent cultural heritage within them -- one that belied the centuries of colonization that had made the Irish second-class citizens within their own country. This was the sound of Ireland well before the Celtic Tiger reared its brief head.
