Happy Belated St Patrick's Day... a little Celtic music to sooth the nerves.

Sometimes you don't need to know the words to the song, or the language, to appreciate the tune.  My two favorites this year....





The Great Silkie of Sule Skerry is a shape-shifting song from Orkney. A selkie is a mythical creature resembling a seal in water but assuming a human form on land. Sule Skerry (Sula Sgeir) is a rocky islet 25 miles west of Hoy Head in Orkney.

The second....




Ireland.... it's magical.... Happy St Patrick's Day!
