Come Back to the Hills
LP - K-Tel Records - KLP 3 - IRL - 1978
Odd folk-rock, celtic rock, trad folk and ballad album notable for the inclusion of three
Mushroom tracks. There are also no less than 6 tracks by Wiskey Styl,
a folk group
managed by Louis Walsh who released a rare album on Hawk Records and at least one single; two by relative unknowns Chaff who
have as common LP on Olympic;
three from the well-known and long lived ballad group The Barleycorn; and three each
from singers Mick Leonard and Noel Nash. A very odd grouping indeed, though it works well as a compilation.
