Rather miraculously, there is now a double-DVD set available containing a two-hour documentary, plus 19 full-length live tracks from old Horslips TV appearances.

For those who haven't come across them, Horslips were 1970s pioneers of what is now known as "Celtic Rock". #Charles O'Connor plays an eight string solid-body e-mando on almost all tracks on this DVD. #The visuals are strictly period now (lots of over-the-top costumes and posturing), but great music, especially the earlier tracks.

The DVD is region-free, but PAL only, and available outside Ireland only from here (http://www.horslips.ie/rotds.html).

Their first album Happy To Meet, Sorry To Part was the most trad. oriented. A fair amount of electric mandolin (sound like a elec gtr up the neck) on the record.
