Prosperous was originally released in 1972, and was the first release on the iconic Irish music label 'Tara Music', which was also home to early Clannad records, Planxty, Moving Hearts & Stockton's Wing amongst many other Irish folk & traditional music artists. The line-up on this classic Christy Moore folk record included Liam O' Flynn, Andy Irvine & Donal Lunny, who later went on to become the revered, Planxty. Prosperous was named after the town & house in County Kildare, Ireland where it was recorded. The house also features on the front cover, where Christy and co. are on the door step. The album has been out of print for nearly 40 years & will be remastered from the original master tapes and released on 180G coloured vinyl.
