Irish Traditional Music Discography
This discography
includes details of the back catalogues of over 400 labels, extant or defunct.
It is a work in progress, so many of the listings are not yet complete (and
probably some never will be). Additions or amendments are always welcome – click here
to send them. Some of my thoughts about “lost” albums appear on The
Vinyl Graveyard page. There’s also an Own Labels section that covers as many privately released albums as
possible. Several major labels with large numbers of releases have their
own separate pages which are highlighted below by asterisks.
If you’re looking
for a particular item, but not sure where to begin, first check the directory of
singers, musicians and bands appearing in these pages. Alternatively, click here
to post a specific query, or here if
you find the whole set-up incomprehensible.
