	Derek Bell - Biography - AOL Music
		But it was in 1972 that Bell took on the most visible musical activity of his career, when he joined the line-up of the Irish folk group the Chieftains, just in time for the recording of their album Chieftains 4.
		Bell's arrival -- which coincided with the decision by the Chieftains to become a full-time occuptation after years of semi-professional activity -- and his presence on harp, oboe, and dulcimer greatly extended the range of the group, which had acquired a large following in England and, during the mid-'70s, became an international phenomenon.
		Bell's prominence was such that he became the focus and subject of several television shows in England, including Derek Bell's Concert Party for the BBC, in which he was featured playing ten instruments.

		Then, beginning at Brands, Derek Bell made a return to an F1 cockpit, joining up with the same team that gave him his only World Championship point when he took sixth in a one-off for Surtees at the 1970 US GP.
		Attwood and Bell were team-mates during Dickie's final season in professional racing and Derek's first year with John Wyer's team, giving Attwood (here sharing the 917K with Hermann Müller at Le Mans) the opportunity to hand over the mantle of top British sportscar driver to Bell, so to speak.
		Derek Bell's sportscar palmares is still a fascinating read, as the Briton will always remain one of the best sportscar drivers ever.

	Derek Bell \| Obituaries \| Guardian Unlimited
		Derek Bell, who has died aged 66 following minor surgery, was the harpist - and the only Ulsterman - with the Irish music group, the Chieftains.
		Bell's harp added extra colour to the mix of flute, uillean pipes, fiddle, bodhran and tin whistles; his formal dress - crumpled suit, pullover and tie - contrasted with the casual style of his colleagues, and his bemused expression and quiet demeanour offset the animation of Moloney, the showman.
		Bell also seemed to relish Moloney's zest for eclectic musical combinations, from collaborations with rock artists such as Van Morrison and Sting to a joint concert with a Chinese orchestra during the Chieftains' 1985 tour.

	ESPN.com: GEN - Bell puts Pirates on alert for 'Operation Shutdown'
		In a weekend interview in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Bell sounded positively shocked to learn he was in either a three- or four-way battle for the starting job in right, saying he assumed the position was his and that no one had told him otherwise.
		Bell didn't specify what Operation Shutdown entails, although you'd hope to see some fancy military-style maneuvers to go with a name like that.
		Bell, for example, is unfortunately laboring under the misconception that he plays in some city other than Pittsburgh, for a group of fans who would read a comment like, "Tell them exactly what I said: I haven't competed for a job since 1991," and reply, "Wow, it sure sounds like he means it!"

		A streaky right-handed hitter, Bell earned his greatest renown as a key member of the Houston team that won three consecutive NL Central titles in the late 1990's.
		Bell hadn't helped his cause by developing a bad attitude reputation in Houston, a perception enhanced when he offered ill-timed complaints about being dropped down in the batting order on the same day manager Larry Dierker returned to the dugout following a brain seizure.
		Bell, who keeps his sunglasses on, lobs in 36 pitches to 10 batters and allows three hits, three walks, and five runs (4 earned) in his inning.

	Eamonn Fitzgerald's Rainy Day: Derek Bell, RIP
		The Belfast that Derek Bell was born into in 1935 shared few of the values of its 18th century elite, but its love of music remained and the child prodigy, who wrote his first concerto at 12, was rewardeded with scholarships and education, and later, employment with the BBC Northern Ireland Orchestra.
		The attraction of the ancient music grew, however, and in 1972 he joined The Chieftains, a group that had come together in Dublin in the late 50s while playing with Ceoltori Cualann, a folk orchestra led by Sean O Riada.
		On and off stage, Derek Bell dressed in conservative suits and looked more like a mild-mannered banker than a celebrity musician.

		All the songs are in their most basic forms, with few of the embellishments that one would get from, say, a Chieftains record, and the entire record has a beguiling gentle lyricism that is quite poignant ("Down by the Sally Gardens" and "Eibhlín a Rúin," in particular).
