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 ("Miss Eire" 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 exciting creative treatment of traditional Irish music.

LP is in good condition. Some light scuffing which does not affect play
