THE GALLOWGLASS CEILI BAND REEL SELECTION IRISH PRESSING 1957 E.P.
Its hard to imagine a time before the Gallowglass, but of course this was but a new name for the “Mc Garrs”. Paddy Mc Garr started that famous Ceilidhe Band in or about 1950. The band got its name from the Gallóglaigh, mercenary soldiers who came into Northern Ireland from Scotland. It is also the name of an Irish Jig. Paddy started on a right note and composed the “Gallowglass Polka”. This was the signature tune for the E.S.B – sponsored programme at 8 a.m on Radio Eireann in the ‘50s.
