Here's to Friends! Patrons of the Podcast can now listen to the latest episode of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast!
This is an Album Pin.
It's an enamel pin themed after our newest compilation featuring a Seal with a Celtic knot heart and reads "Celtic On the Inside".
The story of the selkie can be heard on episode #651 of the podcast, back in March. It's these story of a woman who sheds her seal skin to walk on land. Before being trapped there.
I know I'm Celtic on the Inside. So I have a deep enduring love for Celtic music. That's why I produce this show nearly every week.
You can now SHOW YOUR LOVE for Celtic music with the Celtic On the Inside Album Pin.
You'll get the beautiful pin to show your colors. But you'll also get a digital album to download and listen wherever you go. It features 14 of the Top 20 tracks on the Best of 2023 episode of the show. It's a great way to show your love for Irish & Celtic music to archive many of the amazing songs of the year.
Please get your Celtic On the Inside Album Pin right now.

This is CELTIC ON THE INSIDE--the CD. It's now on sale at http://magerecords.com
The album features 14 tracks by some of the best Celtic artists of 2023. It's a really great album.
Yeah, you can buy all of these tracks, plus all of the others that were featured on the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast #641: Celtic Top 20 of 2023.
In fact, I recommend you do that too. LOL
However, there's another reason why you should own the album, whether on CD or as an Album Pin.
Memories!
The music business is a strange new world. Right now, you can stream almost all of the music featured on the podcast on Spotify, Amazon Music, Apple Music, or a zillion other places. But those are all ephemeral. Who knows if they will even be around tomorrow.
I still remember the days of MP3 .com and Myspace and Livejournal. Do you? Ever hear of them.
These things are here today.
But gone tomorrow.
Whether you get a CD or an Album Pin with a digital download attached. You will own the music. Not sure rent.
I can't tell you how many people ask me about bands from the early days of the podcast... heck even from 5 years ago.
"Whatever happened to..."
"How can I get a copy of..."
I got an email about that about a month ago.
I alway encourage you to support the artist. But it's not just that. It's also keeping their memory alive.
There are so many great Celtic bands that had their day. Check out tracks on Best of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast or The Secret World of Celtic Rock.
Some disappeared.
I don't know how to reach them.
Some died.
RIP
Our memories last. The Irish & Celtic Music Podcast has over 600 episodes. But one day (hopefully not for another 50+ years)... The show may not be here. You may not be able to download these shows anywhere.
They could be gone.
Just memories...
I want to create new compilations every year. In part I do it to fund the podcast. But I also do it for the MEMORIES.
I'm saving one of these compilations for myself. Because I want to listen back in 10 years to some of the amazing Celtic bands who blew us all away with their incredible performances, at this specific moment in history.
Your purchase ensures that I can do more of these compilations. it also supports the artists. Every one was paid to allow me to share their music as a compilation.
I am so grateful for their kindness and generosity and support for the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast.
Will you consider joining them?

Happy 4th of July! That’s when our Declaration of Independence was ratified by the Second Continental Congress establishing the United States of America as an independent country.
The fight against tyranny is never complete. That was the lesson of January 6th in our country when a failed former American president broke the law and tried to usurp control of our country, much like tyrants of old.
Fortunately, he was defeated by law-abiding, just Americans. The threat is still real. So this week, we’re celebrating Independence Day with Irish & Celtic music.
The Celts also know what it means to be oppressed by tyrants. We have a whole slew of songs on the topic. This week, we’re gonna share a small sampling of songs of independence and freedom by Celtic musicians.
