Jessie Buckley 🏆

 We first fell in love with the true force of nature that is Jessie Buckley back in 2017 in TV series (7 episodes) Taboo (with Tom Hardy) and then in Beast [with Johnny Flynn] and Wild Rose and have watched mesmerised ever since


Comhghairdeas to Kerry’s Jessie Buckley on making history as the first Irish woman to win the Oscar for Best Actress! 🎬🏆


We’re delighted to share this striking portrait of Buckley from the Bluett Collection of Autographed Photographs of Irish Actors, held at the National Library of Ireland.


The Bluett Collection features photographs of celebrities with ties to Ireland, gathered by the donor between 1964 and 2020.

Bob Dylan - One More Night Field Recordings (Thousand Highways) via VOODOO WAGON

 Always worth revisiting the peerless compilations of curated Dylan shows at A Thousand Highways who sadly stopped compiling back in May 2024 despite pleas and his site works as a totally brilliant archive of such, themed sometimes and always quality recordings, go visit and collect the set (sic!) meanwhile sample this selection of Field Recordings from Jobe over at The Voodoo Wagon!

Dylan of the Day: Last Thoughts on Woody Guthrie (Live at Town Hall, New York, NY - April 1963 - Official Audio)

 Somebody over on The Bob Dylan Fan Club Facebook page posted this and its always worth a revisit as it always gets me . . . . . . this posted in 2021 on Bob Dylan.com

Last Thoughts on Woody Guthrie (Live at Town Hall, New York, NY - April 1963 - Official Audio)

Rory Gallagher on guitars (yes again!)

May be an image of guitar

 so any excuse I say . . . . . . 

 Rory Gallagher: “I use a Fender Stratocaster, mostly, and have a Telecaster for slide guitar. I kind of like Fenders. They’re good and crisp, and they travel well. Gibsons are nice, but they’re a little more low key. Fenders have a much more vicious sound. People have made guitars for me, but I never end up playing them, or I haven’t so far. I’m attached to the one I have.”

“For acoustic, I have a Martin D-35 or a National steel-bodied, “the one-resonator Acolian. I used to play the Martin a lot more, but now I just, more or less, work on the National because it’s a lot brassier. The material I do suits the National.”
“I don’t have any real Irish music in my thing, even though it creeps in here and there. But I don’t deliberately play any Irish gigs or anything. Oh, I like that when it happens, but I don’t see myself as an electric Celtic rocker.”
“When I started playing , the first guys I liked were Lonnie Donegan (of “British skiffle” fame), Buddy holly, Eddie Cochran, Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Fats Domino and Gene Vincent. And later on, Tommy Tucker, Willie Dixon, and Muddy Waters….the obvious blues people. I played on The London muddy Waters Sessions (Chess), and did a few Willie Dixon numbers that time. I have the album, yeah. Muddy was really good at it. I have the London Muddy Waters-Howling Wolf Sessions as well.”
