Biography

Paddy O’Brien is regarded by serious players and collectors of Irish traditional music as one of the tradition’s most important repositories; in a career that spans nearly forty years, he has collected more than 3,000 compositions—jigs, reels, hornpipes, airs, and marches, including many rare and unusual tunes. His collection, all the more remarkable because it is stored in his head, is the result… Read more in Amazon's Paddy O'Brien Store

5.0 out of 5 stars Paddy O'Brien's music is an incomparable delight!, March 13, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Stranger at the Gate (Audio CD)
Imagine riding in a schoolbus with a bunch of teenagers returning late at night from a game-- and the driver decides to floor the gas pedal while descending a hill on a winding road in rural New England. (This is a personal recollection that I bring to mind). That's the best analogy I can think of the momentum Paddy's music seems to have-- a mixture of glee, sheer joy, excitement, terror, and wonder all combined into one. I don't play the button accordion, but I would assume that O'Brien is one of the primary inspirations to people that do. Or should be.
