Heads up for the Dutch and Belgian /massive/ on here (and Britishes w/ satellite telly). ARD is showing Conny Plank – Mein Vater der Klangvisionär🕸 (German title of the documentary mentioned above) tomorrow at 23.45 CET. I've not seen it yet so I'm very much looking forward to it.

I think it's either on Amazon Prime or Sky Arts as well.

I was just listening to a track from this album when I noticed it was recorded... at Conny Plank's Studio!

Eddie & Finbar Furey seem to have recorded a few of their albums in Germany for some reason, at least one other one being engineered by Conny Plank.

the germans are (or are at least were) daft for Irish folk music as far as I can tell, lots of stuff filmed for german telly if you go on an Irish folk youtube binge

they are big pioneers of Celtic studies in the 19th century and seem to love the highlands as well, terrible lads for the gaelophilia

I found the documentary to be slow and not that engaging– I actually nodded off a few times. May need to give it another try.

it's funny that they changed his shorts to pants on the Liliental album cover:
