![]() ![]() ![]() "With our series of Transatlantic Sessions for BBC and RTE, Aly Bain, director Mike Alexander and I can fairly claim to have done our bit in rescuing Scottish and Irish traditional music and American Country from their respective Aran sweater and rhinestone glitter caricatures. An acclaimed ground-breaking series that, in a very simple fashion, brought together a host of great artists from Europe and America, and introduced them to each other's music. Seven programmes featuring 34 artists, including Aly Bain, John Martyn, Emmylou Harris, Mary Black, Guy Clark, Danny Thompson and Iris DeMent.Ī long time coming on DVD, but greatly welcomed by folk, country and roots music enthusiasts on both sides of the Atlantic. The complete Series One - The Original Transatlantic Sessions. (November 2008 release of 1994 recording) 56 tracks (3h 24mins) ![]()
