The Fields of Athenry - Probably the best ballad ever written. The version song by Paddy Reilly and without the add-ons created in the stands of Celtic FC. Ruins it.

Galtee Mountain Boy - another great one and the Foggy Dew. My Fave 3.

All of above - great songs. My favourite (played on acoustic guitar) would be:

Black Velvet Band
Mc Alpines Fusillieers
Dirty old Town
Missing You
The Cobbler
Desperado
Raglan Road
Johnny Jump Up
Lakes of Ponchartrain
The Oul Triangle
Carrickfergus
Black is the Colour

A lot of Dubliners there I agree, but fairly guaranteed to get any session goin!

I absoloutely LOVE these ones:

Authur McBride
Mc Alpines Fusillieers
Raglan Road
Lakes of Ponchartrain
Wrap the Green Flag
Back Home in Derry
Streets of New York
Erin Go Bragh

I can play the guitar but can't really make anything Irish sound good. Anyone recommend any decent Irish guitar lessons???
