Condition Rating/General Comments

The vinyl record is excellent, near mint, with no easily discernible surface marks or abrasions whatsoever.

The sleeve is excellent, clean and unmarked - with virtually no obvious signs of wear. There is a little very light creasing in the upper and lower right corners. The sleeve retains all of it's original reflective lustre.

The inner (plain white) is likewise excellent - clean and unmarked, with a little creasing in the corners.

The track Listing appears to be in gaelic (reproduced as accurately as possible without the use of special characters)

About This Title (reproduced from the rear of the album sleeve)

When Sean O Riada was invited by Four Provinces Films to provide the music for 'The Playboy,' his reputation as a composer of film music was already well established ('Mise Éire' in 1959; 'Saoirse?' in 1961). In this instance, however, O Riada regarded his task less as one of composition than of design and direction, for, in the event, what he gave the producers was not a conventionally 'original' score for conventional orchestra, but a wildly unconventional and excitingly creative treatment of traditional Irish music.

The players, while they may be grouped in a roughly 'orchestral' pattern - woodwind, 'brass', wind, strings and percussion - do not form an orchestra in the modern Western sense. The high individualism of the Irish musical tradition is preserved in performance; there are no written parts, each player making his personal contribution to the texture of the music according to a design pre-arranged in discussion with the director: An impromptu a loisir, in fact! The instruments used are flute, uillean pipes, and tin-whistle; two double-row button accordians; two fiddles; bone-castanets and bodhran or goatskin drum.

These instruments are used for playing this kind of music in different parts of the country: the music itself is of course to be heard in every corner of Ireland. Its strength and freshness and deep popularity (in the real sense of the word) make it the Irish folk-art par excellence: its potential for development may be judged from this recording
