EXPERIENCE THE ENDURING LEGACY OF HORSLIPS WITH MADFISH'S NEW 2LP SET 'HORSLIPS - AT THE BBC' - GATEFOLD 2LP BLACK VINYL SET COMPRISING LIVE PERFORMANCES & RARE ARCHIVAL MATERIAL FROM THE CELTIC ROCK PIONEERS.

Few bands have left as distinct a mark on the musical landscape as Horslips. Emerging in the early 1970's, they more or less created 'Celtic Rock', drawing from Irish traditional music & British/American rock, crafting a sound that was both timeless & radical.

This 2LP collection gathers a carefully curated selection of performances captured by the BBC during the band's groundbreaking 1970's heyday & their powerful return to the stage decades later.

LP1 showcases Horslips in full flight during a 1974 BBC Radio 1 In Concert broadcast, capturing the mythic energy of their classic albums 'The Tain' & 'The Book Of Invasions'. Tracks like "Dearg Doom," "Charolais," &"You Can't Fool The Beast" bristle with invention & intent. The disc also includes sessions from Sounds of the 70's & The John Peel Show, preserving the raw brilliance of one of Ireland's most visionary bands at the peak of their creative powers.

LP2 moves forward to 1979, with a triumphant return to Radio 1's In Concert, where tracks such as "The Power & The Glory" & "Sword Of Light" demonstrate the band's ability to evolve while staying true to their roots. The album closes with rare recordings from BBC Radio Ulster (2011) & BBC NI (2019) - a poignant reminder of Horslips' long shadow & final flourish, including the elegiac "Sideways To The Sun."

Presented on double black vinyl in a beautifully designed gatefold sleeve, 'At The BBC' is a celebration of a band whose influence still echoes through the decades. The mastering is shared by Eroc in Germany & band associate Cormac O'Kane who mastered the acclaimed 2023 Horslips box set 'More Than You Can Chew'.
