Good That He's Living In Belgium Now So We Can Have Some More Songs Together." - Philip Masure "I First Met Daithi Rua When We Did A Gig Together On The Banks Of The River Shannon In His Native Co. Offaly In The Early Nineties. Although A Comtemporary Folk Musician And Writer I Was Struck With His Integrity And Sensitivity Of His Native Roots Unlike So Many Post-Modern Irish Writers. His Recorded Work Is Filled With Warmth Commitment And Originality And With The Didactic Quality So Central To Genuine Art." - Jimmy Crowley C Www.Daithirua.Com read less
