Inis Fail Ceilidhe Band: Moving Bog/Jackson's (reels)

This week's 78rpm disc is another of the Inis Fail Ceilidhe Band discs from the Michael and Mary Comer Collection. As noted before, we're unsure if this is Sean O'Neill's Inis Fail Ceili Band that recorded in the 1960s and toured the US during that time. The handwriting on the label does seem to be familiar with the Jimmy Giblin and Mike Scanlon disc from the Comer Collection, and considering the presence of the bodhran on both recordings, this group might be tied to the Cleveland Irish music scene (Ward-irish-music-archives – Lady-on-the-island-jimmy-giblin-and-mike-scanlon). Feel free to reach out to us if you have any information of an Inis Fail Ceilidhe Band being active in the Ohio area.

From the Comer Collection, Comer 78 00-038.
