A beautiful cover of Cher's "Gypsies Tramps and Theives"...

...can be found on the home page for the Irish band Dervish, from their new album.  No domestic release yet; it's only available direct from them.

A live version from a tv show is on youtube.

Wow, who knew that the song could be anything but old Cher-crap?

So, I watched the youtube version first and couldn't really understand anything she was saying. Then I watched a Cher version so I'd know what I was supposed to be listening for. Then I went to the one on their site...that one rocks!! I could understand her and it actually sounded good :) Props to them for sure!

It's being played by "Live Ireland" all the time now too. www.liveireland.com, then click on the trad music button. Eventually, you'll hear it... along with a lot of other folks, to include KELTISH in the not too distant future. Live Ireland is hooking up with Second Life "Dublin" sim owner, Ham Rambler, and I believe their St. Pats day live music will be simulcast. Woot!
