Loreena McKennitt

Hmm.

And so a lot of these things would just kind of be passed down and told, as well as through, there, there were some, like, Lorena McKennitt songs that would, like, sing about ancient Celtic, uh, history and that sort of thing.

So it's, it's fun, like, growing up and, and hearing a lot of these stories, and then kind of looking into the resources about them.

So yeah, what I love that you pointed out is that Samhain means summer's end.

That's my favorite Cillian Murphy s- movie.

And then I thought, there's a beautiful song called "The Wind That Shakes the Barley," which was performed magnificently by the Canadian singer Loreena McKennitt.

Maybe I'll play it on Fincher Hanson with, uh, on Out Loudly with Fincher Hanson tonight.

Oh, and a great instinct that was.

With aching heart would hear I hear.

The wind that shakes the barley.

Loreena McKennitt, "The Wind That Shakes the Barley."

Set in County Cork.

[singing]Just, I'm just gonna tell you about this track before I play it.

Again, I'm looking back at, uh, Loreena McKennitt's early record.

This is, um, from an album called Restless and Crazy.

It's a, a track, Fall of the Tango.

Uh, Fall of the Tango's a track.

Restless and Crazy it's called, um, the album.

Now, Loreena McKennitt was twice winner of the Tui Award for Best Fo- Folk Album, first for Lucky Damn Woman in 1992, and then for Clean Break in 2005, which I think Bernie and I released on Global Roots Music, um, or Flaming Pearl Records and distributed by Global Roots Music.

And on that album, um, Clean Break in 2005, you had the debut of Hannah Top, her daughter, uh, singing, who I've heard sing with Loreena at the age of 15 or 16, reluctantly at that age.

That's, uh, really cool.

Before that, we had, uh, two tracks from, uh, Loreena McKennitt.

That was Marco Polo and the Gates of Istanbul.

'Cause Loreena's, you know, so, so good at that type of thing.
