The Irish Connection - Van The Man and others
Rod Stewart covered the next one but I prefer the original Van's version
"I am in awe of a musician like Van Morrison. I had to stop listening to Van Morrison records about six months before we made The Unforgettable Fire because I didn't want his very original soul voice to overpower my own."
Bono

Technically, although Irish, Van Mossison is from Northern Island so hes actually British
Re: The Irish Connection - Van The Man and others
Have you ever noticed that, as a rule anyway, an Island is land?

"As the band's creative force, Lynott was a more insightful and intelligent writer than many of his ilk, preferring slice-of-life working-class dramas of love and hate influenced by Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, Bruce Springsteen, and virtually all of the Irish literary tradition."

"Thin Lizzy boasted some of the most critically acclaimed guitarists throughout their history"

".....when driving a tearful Imelda to a gig after a boyfriend break-up her father asked her, "Is your heart broken? Excellent. Now you can sing the blues."

You can't have an Irish thread without the "Pogues". The classic "Fairytale Of New York" with "Kirsty McColl".
