Horslips: High Reel

Last week I posted a video of 1970s Celtic rock pioneers Horslips performing the "The Man Who Built America," and I described them as a combination of Jethro Tull, Thin Lizzy, and The Pogues.

Although it's a great song, there wasn't anything Pogues-like with that tune. "The High Reel" moves the needle a bit in that direction, although the feel of it is more in line with British folk pioneers Fairport Convention.

Anyway, enough with the words, now the song--which is an instrumental.


Horslips, as I mentioned last week, is getting back together for a couple of December concerts.
