	Scottish Traditional Music - Hall Of Fame: Paddy Moloney
		In the decades to come, as founder and helmsman of the Chieftains, Paddy was to rub shoulders with Beatles, record with Rolling Stones, perform for presidents and play the uilleann pipes on the Great Wall of China.
		Yet throughout it all, over forty-plus years and forty-plus albums, the core ethos of Paddy’s music has remained firmly rooted in the many impromptu céilís that took place at home while he was growing up, and during visits to his grandmother in Co. Laois.
		Now approaching his 70th year, Paddy remains as irrepressible and inspiring a livewire as ever, constantly a-bubble with fresh ideas and projects – so much so, that we’re still waiting for his long-promised debut solo album.

	Agnes Brown (Soundtrack) by Paddy Moloney
		This film is about a Dublin, Ireland woman who loses her husband and is left to cope with her seven children during the sixties.
		Composer Paddy Moloney contributes seven tracks to this Decca CD release which, quite appropriately, reflect the Dublin setting.
		Moloney certainly shows he is capable of composing for film and the Irish Film Orchestra does an adequate job, but a certain depth is missing that most film music fan’s have come to love, if not expect, from a Celtic-influenced score such as Mark McKenzie’s Durango, Carter Burwell’s Rob Roy, or James Horner’s Braveheart.

		This has Paddy Moloney and the Chieftains combining forces with one of the best assemblages of country musicians put together.
		A diverse group it definitely is, stretching from Ricky Skaggs to Don Williams to Colin James running into Willie Nelson and Chet Atkins and so forth in a cornucopia of audio delight.
		The players seem to be a unit that has been been down the long hard road of wire fenced stages in cheap bars together honing its skills, which arrive at fruition here.
