present: hiatus, five-piece reunion, Nádúr, and final tour [ edit ] Clannad returned as a five piece in January 2007 Since then, Clannad regularly includes a "Robin Of Sherwood Medley" in their setlist that typically includes the title song, and segments of "Lady Marian", "Herne" and "Ancient Forest", as well as the unreleased "Dance" from Series 1 and two songs from Series 3 entitled "Action" and "Royal" that have only been released on live albums including Clannad: Live in Concert (released 2005). On the 2005 release Clannad: Live in Concert, there were live performances of unreleased music including "Dance & Teidhir Abhaile Riu" from Series 1 and "Action" and "Royal" from Series 3 as part of a "Robin of Sherwood Medley".there were several other pieces of music recorded for the 3rd series of Robin of Sherwood that were not included on the Legend album. Unfortunately no-one has been able to locate the master tapes of this music. The search is continuing and hopefully one day these recordings will be able to be released." [1] In 1974, the band followed their debut album with Clannad 2, released by Gael Linn Records and produced by Dónal Lunny, the founder of Planxty and The Bothy Band. Like their first album, Clannad 2 featured a mixture of English and Gaelic songs, with Lunny and members of the Bothy Band on additional instruments. It also featured the band's first use of a synthesizer. [26] [28] In 1973, Clannad came in first place in the annual folk festival in Letterkenny, County Donegal, and were offered a deal with Philips Records, which they negotiated themselves. [29] [28] Having secured a label, the group prepared material for a debut album. They recorded at Eamonn Andrews Studios in Dublin, choosing Gaelic and English songs and a cover of " Morning Dew" by Bonnie Dobson. Released in 1973, Clannad was met with initial resistance from the label because of the use of Gaelic, and the group soon found themselves more popular outside Ireland, particularly in Germany. [29] Later in 1973, Clannad competed for Ireland in the heat stages of the 1973 Eurovision Song Contest with the song "An Pháirc". In March 2008, Clannad began their first UK tour in over 12 years. [52] In May 2008, Clannad's version of the traditional song " Down by the Salley Gardens" was featured in the listening paper for Music GCSE from the Oxford, Cambridge and RSA Examinations exam board. Also in 2008, two compilation albums were released: Celtic Themes: The Very Best of Clannad and Beginnings: The Best of the Early Years. [53] In 2009, Clannad were nominated for an IMA Award for Best Revival Act. [54] [55]
