#OTD in 1953 – Birth of folk singer, Dolores Keane, in Sylane, Co Galway.

Dolores Keane was a founding member of the successful group De Dannan, and has since embarked on a very successful solo career, establishing herself as one of the most loved interpreters of Irish music. Keane was born in a small village called Sylane (near Tuam) in rural Co Galway. She was raised by her aunts Rita and Sarah Keane since the age of four, who are also well-known sean-nós singers.…

Oldfield from the 90's on flaunted his influence. Voyager was another example of that, he tried to reclaim the sounds that many took from him during the 90's and he wished to warn us he was there first. While we can debate about the latter, the truth is he was one of the early adopters of the Celtic soundscapes. However, his work on Voyager doesn't reach his previous work in this vein. We can actually see this LP as him showing the proof of his older pieces in the form of the original ones, but he overshines them in order to compensate for him being taken over by his students. Still, Voyager serves as the reminder that Mike Oldfield had the right track in the 90's, he just couldn't stop cleaning that one too much.

Jimmy Magee’s Different Class: A Must Read

Legendary sports broadcaster Jimmy Magee spent over half a century cementing his legacy in the world of sport. The voice that accompanied countless memorable moments from a number of different contests and competitions, Magee earned himself the nickname of “The Memory Man” for his ability to recall almost any event in sporting history. It’s that very memory that makes Different Class: My Favourite Sporting Memories a fascinating read for any sports fan. Written by Magee alongside writer Jason O’Toole, the book is full of sporting moments that Magee himself believes stand apart in a Different Class, as well as Magee’s highly lauded opinions as to who the best of the best are in a wide variety of sports, including soccer, GAA, rugby, boxing, golf, athletics and many more.

As if that weren’t enough, Different Class also features a number of anecdotes from Magee’s personal encounters throughout his travels. Many notables names are mentioned, including Muhammad Ali, Pelé, Eddie Merckx, Maradona, and Matt Busby, just to name a few. And of course, though Magee was born in the United States he grew up and spent much of his career in Ireland, so there’s much mention of many Irish sports stars like George Best, Katie Taylor, Jack Charlton, Seán Kelly, Brian O’Driscoll, Rory McIlroy, Stephen Roche, Roy Keane, Sonia O’Sullivan, and virtually anyone who’s been anybody in the GAA.
