*I come from Poland, a country in the middle of Europe, and I remember watching Robin Hood when I was a teenager. Poland was just regaining its independence at the time. It was a miracle to watch the movie and listen to that wonderful music. You couldn’t even buy a Clannad cassette, so we had to record that beautiful music from the TV in mono. The whole of Poland knows Clannad.*
Moya told a story about playing in Poland, that the crowd refused to leave unless they played the RoS suite. It was one of the first Western shows that was shown after the fall of the Soviet Union and meant so much to them. They performed it then and during every concert ever since.
@@GrainneMhaol It's hard to explain. Poland wasn't an open country. Buying a Clannad tape was unrealistic. But everyone kept your music in their heads and today, approaching 50th, I still love the vocals and instruments. 40 years have passed and Clannad is still the jewel in the crown.
@@GrainneMhaol I can assure you that 60% of the Polish population knows after the first bars what kind of music it is, where it comes from and who plays it.
One of the best music groups mankind has ever experienced! They really inspired me to learn Celtic and Irish culture. I even tried to learn Irish once, but had to give it up because it's too hard to read and pronounce... But if I were Irish, I would definitely do my best to keep the language alive. It is a living heritage!
I saw this on showtime in America. I love the show Robin of Sherwood it was called here, before my Flood I had this album. Thank you for sharing it with the world, I have survived two floods, albums, paintings and all my early pictures are all gone. AHO!
Watched the series in Channel 5, Venezolana de Televisión during happier times while in elementary school. Back then both Robin's Sherwood and Caracas felt like magical places. Thank you for the Music and Memories.
