Here’s a piece of Irish folk history that deserves a spot in any serious collection. The Irish Rovers’ “The Unicorn” represents a pivotal moment when traditional Celtic music crossed over into mainstream North American consciousness in 1967. This Canadian Decca pressing captures the group at their absolute peak, featuring their biggest hit “The Unicorn Song” Shel Silverstein’s whimsical tale that became a folk standard and introduced countless listeners to the infectious energy of Irish traditional music. The Rovers, formed by Irish immigrants to Canada, bridged the gap between authentic folk traditions and accessible pop sensibilities in a way few groups managed.
