Horslips - Faster Than The Hound (BBC Old Grey Whistle Test, 1974) 

Farewell Johhny Fean; what a sad loss x

THE TAIN is a brilliant album! Still have it on vinyl. Very underrated rock band.

Back when we were young and beautiful, now we're just beautiful!! Jofus

Sang in Irish, English and Manx. Great how they turned ancient legends into modern rock albums. Pity they never gave the Táin or Book of Invasions the War of the Worlds Richard Burton treatment.

Met them on a London-Gothenburg ferry in 1973. Nice people.

I adore this band since I was a mad shy little kid

Amazing musicians. Amazing music .

Those fellows could really play

Always good to hear a great band perform on the Whistle Test

Was a teenager when I first heard this. The album went with my sister, who sold it on ebay decades later, and now I've heard it again. I'm 64.

Brilliant band

My fav Horslips track brings me back to when I was 16 seeing them for first time in July 76 in a stinking hot Farmers Ballroom Virginia Co Cavan. Great memories!

Saw them live in 1975 at the Corn Exchange, Cambridge. The place was almost empty - perhaps a total crowd of 100 of us, but they took it on the chin and gave us a helluva concert. Great memories.

RIP Johnny Fean

This band rules I discovered them on the old grey whistle test in 2009 brilliant! From Shaz in the uk

Class

Great song!

RIP Johnny.

First band I saw live late 70s. Made a special trip to Glasgow in 2011 when they had reformed after all those years. Tears in my eyes. My dad passed away this morning, and melancholy thoughts like this are running through my mind - the lost past.

So vey very glad I found this channel, what a great band. Saw them play live many times in the 70s

Drive the cold winter away!

The Táin is one of the Pantheon's masterpiece albums

One excellent Track

I always thought TOGWT were live performances

Keith Lemons dad on bass?

Saw them in Philly, I beleive it was The Shubert Theater???? Prolly around 73/74?????

I think Johnny was singing what sounds like the female part.

Rob Halford's twin on lead guitar. the Young Rob that is.

Very beatlesque.

There was a woman's voice.... but they are playing live

Dear Prudence? A

One brilliant band irish history and rock back in the day like Thin lizzy good Phil and Gary Moore 👍
