Irish Essentials

The list author says:
	"Just before I started to Irish Dance I bought this video - it has helped me so much, and it really impressed the teacher that I knew some dances before I started!  It really does help to prepare a bit"

The list author says:
	"You haven't lived if you haven't seen this show.  It really is the most amazing thing I have ever seen.  The dances are pure perfection!"

The list author says:
	"Seen the video?  Well, gotta buy the music then haven't you?!?  Trust me, it's brilliant."

The list author says:
	"This is the original version with Michael Flatley that began Irish Dance fever.  People say that Lord of the Dance is better, but you still have to see the original.  Some very pretty dances."

The list author says:
	"I haven't seen this, and I'm not sure who's in it, but it will be interesting to see how they've modernised it."

The list author says:
	"Makes you imagine yourself leaping about on that stage.....very good for long car journeys :)"

The list author says:
	"Okay, so we all prefer Flatley, but this guy is NINE times World Dance Champion, so he's got to be good."

The list author says:
	"Ever wondered why Flatley REALLY broke off from the Riverdance troupe?  Me too, so I'm buying this :D"

The list author says:
	"Yeah, so I'm obsessed..........."

The list author says:
	"This book is about Céíli, dancing in groups.  This is great fun - I suggest you get your friends together and have a go!!"

The list author says:
	"Ah well, there had to be a book didn't there........."

The list author says:
	"A completely different style of Irish Dancing, 'Set Dancing.'  If you want to try 'the other side,' :P then why not?  With 55 dances, you'll learn a lot for sure :)"

The list author says:
	"If you like history here's one hundred and twelve pages of it to tickle your fancy."

The list author says:
	"Again, if you like history, read about the costumes!"

The list author says:
	"Another Irish Dancing show - almost has the atmosphere of a school play, and some of the dances go on for a little too long, but otherwise it's good."

The list author says:
	"And why not Dance Dangerously?  Take the plunge and watch it."

The list author says:
	"A new take on ten of the songs - very pretty.  No good to dance to, but excellent listening.  I especially like his take on my favourite track - The Countess Cathleen Slip Jig."

The list author says:
	"I'm not a big fan of this (despite popular opinion) because the taps are all obviously fake and Flatley and Flynn look like they just can't be bothered."

The list author says:
	"Even though the DVD isn't great, the CD is - you don't have to enjoy the DVD to love it :D"
