Totally agree. His style changed Fleetwood Mac in the early years and despite the wilderness years Mac were great under Danny. Such a huge loss, such an underrated guitarist and singer.
i used to bump into him back in the 70s when i was a teenager as he just lived a couple of streets away from me , in westcliff on sea he liked to drink in the plough . i remember watching him play guitar in hes back room im 60 now never forget that day .the funny thing is i dint know he was iin fleetwood mac .
Another Danny masterpiece. This would have fit on any FM album and been a highlight, like all his stuff. As long as folks listen, appreciate, and enjoy his music, he lives on forever.
Woman of a Thousand Years , Sands Of Time, Dust, Just to name a few. Danny Kirwin is one of the unsung guitar giants of the 1970,s. I totally agree wt the comment below. True talent is so often over looked , while much lesser talents garner all the praise.
One of the 20th century 's greatest songs. Danny kirwan has a fabulous voice, plays brilliantly, and writes spectacularly enjoyable songs easy to listen to often , thousands of listens not being enough, yet fewer than 1000 people in the Western Hemisphere could identify him or name 3 songs he is part of. And things such as ozzy or bono are part of the language . Well, to love danny is just below loving god and his son and his spirit in my world
My friend. My English is not good but I can understand your feeling. I totally agree with you. Peter Green was a very good guitar player but Danny Kirwan's song **Cascades** and ""Dust** are worth to listen thousands times as you stated. It's such a mixed feel hope , heartache , humanism and lots of feelings I can not describe. And of course they are very very kind.
+James Prichard You have a rare grasp of Danny's spirit. It was too gentle, to fragile for the harsh world it lived in and that world crushed him and left him alive but unable to deal with it. Danny, you were the very spirit & soul of FM and there are still a few who remember. May God bless and watch over you....
Those of us who grew up with the the fantastic DANNY KIRWAN are privlaged to expose the ;man in the shadows:Danny Kirwan,he lives tru his songs and outstanding guitar,be safe mr kirwan
@@AnthonyMonaghan I feel so blessed to have seen Danny early '72, Bozeman Montana hi sch. gym, $2. 😮. my 1st concert I was 12. I met my lifelong crush Christine backstage and almost fainted lol ... indelible memories! seeing Danny and Bob Welch made me take up guitar, aint put em down yet
Simply Beautiful. Danny, spread your wings and fly. You truly deserve all these beautiful comments. Too big for Boilerhouse. Too magical for Mac. Your music is wonderful.
Unbelievable. Absolutely phenomenal stuff here. This guy was an absolute gem. It’s a damn shame more people don’t know of him, and the great talent he was.
thankyou Danny for the music you gave us. and thankyou for not staying in the game just for cash. money & notoriety isn't the measure of a musician. "Dragonfly" & "Sands of time" are 2 of the most beautiful songs ever recorded.
Danny you are missed. Your guitar playing and song writing is in a league of its own. Your music is as meaningful and relevant today as it was when it came out on vinyl. May God keep you safe and well.
Danny's songs can make me cry. Beautifully written pieces, some so lovely and emotional, revealing his depth of spirit. Danny will always be my favorite, from the many versions of F-Mac, RIP!
Great tune. All I know about Kirwan is his music, which I've enjoyed since the late 1960s, but it's sad to learn that he's been out of music scene for many years and is suffering from deteriorating mental health. I certainly wish him well, and for what it's worth hope he knows how much his music was and still is enjoyed.
Danny, You are one of the most incredible talents I ever have encountered. I grew up down the street from Steve Morse in Augusta, GA, and was blessed to know him. May GOD heal you, and give you peace. May someone tell you how many people are thankful for you and your music. We all wish the best for you always, Dan Austin
Those with gentlest souls on earth have been visited by some of its darkest demons within. Such is the paradox which creates some of the most beautiful music for us, a gift
there's something so warm and comforting, yet deeply sad about his vocals. his guitar always speaks to you through every note... the lead guitar part at 1:17 is just sumblime. I'm so glad to have finally discovered this song. it's life affirming stuff.
Wow, just heard this version for the first time here. I'm stunned. Thank you Raskvidh. Danny, may you be wrapped in Light & Love, You're A Beautiful Soul, Man.
I used to love this song, sadly I cannot hear it properly now, but Danny should always be remembered as such a good guitar player, when he played with Peter Green in early Fleetwood Mac days they produced some magical stuff together, so sad it was such a short time for both of them, so young, so very talented, I was privileged to be around at that time, never forget them.
I've been going down a FM rabbit hole the last couple days old Mac not Lindsey or Nicks I hate that shit. This is the first time I've heard this song and what I hear is a lot of Bare Trees and Future Games. Absolutely gorgeous!
@kenan my friend, "dust" is the fantastikest song creation I have heard. It is truly a masterpiece of English, which you have as wonderful a command as I do. I have enjoyed your selections of songs and wish you and yours a lot of love and happiness , danny too
there he is in all his glory . a new photo . thanks . notice the extra syllables in the second sky, they are priceless. and MusicalTree3 always writes great stuff for danny
PLEASE upload the rest of this album for the rest of us who have been looking for it forever!! If you are lucky enough to come across a copy, it will cost you big buck$..Please share it with the rest of us Kirwan fans! Thanks!
I consider myself lucky that I still have my Second Chapter LP,I bought it for one song only, Ram Jam City, but then I discover the whole album was filled with beautiful tunes!❤
I always prefered these songs to the much later Buckingham/Nicks Fleetwood pop slop..Great guitar work of Peter, Danny..Kiln House and Then Play On especially...

Danny's solo recordings always sound like they could have been better with a higher studio/producer budget, though the songs themselves are great. This could be gently remixed and would go from an 8 to a 10.
@buellosaurusrex-- I often pray that songs and memories carry over to paradise, and today I pray that Danny and you , and ( me too ) have that chance . May God bless you
+James Prichard Thank you, my friend. Danny lives on as a superstar on You Tube even though today's Danny may not want to remember his past. God Bless...
![Danny Kirwan - Dragonfly [Album]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/DunrAX6XDKs/mqdefault.jpg)
Absolutely one of the finest guitar players in the history of rock and roll, and one of the least known and under-rated.
All true. He can wring a guitars neck or he can lull you to sleep. What a musician. And at his age too.
Totally agree. His style changed Fleetwood Mac in the early years and despite the wilderness years Mac were great under Danny. Such a huge loss, such an underrated guitarist and singer.
My thoughts exactly.Rest in peace
Amen to THAT! He had one of the sweetest,most tasteful vibratos I’ve EVER HEARD.his studied”touch”MADETHE RECORDINGS ON WHICH HE PLAYED

It takes a beautiful soul to write something this gorgeous. Rest in paradise, Danny Kirwan.💜

I would add Dragonfly to that list
@@rogerholcomb and Jewel Eyed Judy and the Sunny Side of Heaven
so true
ABSOLUTELY. Such a sweet style he had.
Danny my old friend, you were not made for this world....you were and now are, eternally ethereal.
Sunny side of heaven!
Danny, I'm getting old. I can't wait anymore. I love and miss you my friend. Thank you
I really can't get enough of Danny's music. It's the most enjoyable for me.
Such a melody artist. I learned to play Dust the week my father died. Beautiful music he made.
Fly free Danny.
What a lovely song.
Bless Danny thanks for the beautiful memories.

@@patriciabannister2721 I've spent thousand of hrs listening to FM since 1960 and never this shame shame
yary gork What are you talking about, I love Danny. What do I need to be ashamed of ?
Danny sure did have talent, he graced us with beautiful, unique songs and for that I thank him forever.
RIP Danny Kirwan a musical legend 💗
One of the greatest guitarists of all time 🎸but never got the recognition he deserved.
A colossus of a guitarist who only for Peter Green's brilliance would've been better known ☘
R.I.P. Danny Your Legacy will last foever
I love that his music is out there, still being discovered by new listeners. He will be remembered...
Those of us who grew up with the the fantastic DANNY KIRWAN are privlaged to expose the ;man in the shadows:Danny Kirwan,he lives tru his songs and outstanding guitar,be safe mr kirwan
Perhaps the most beautiful guitar solo ever in here; I'm in tears at the sad news. RIP Danny
I shed a tear for Danny too. It's been a while, but I still think of him from time to time. Brilliant musician.
I agree...the solo is absolutely gorgeous. A troubled man who made beautiful music. Sail on Danny.

Most powerful picture I've ever seen of Danny.
Rest in Peace Dear Danny. Will always love your voice and emotional playing. Thank you~ :-(

Unbelievable.

First time ever hearing this, incredible
I’ve just discovered this musician. He’s brilliant.
Este LP es uno de mis tesoros...
“Danny was Emotionally Fragile…I would often look over and see Danny crying as he played his Guitar”…..Peter Green
Wow.
Absolutely beautiful and a crime more people have not heard this on the radio etc!!
A wonderful friend lives in the "Cascades" of Fairfax Ca and this I will share with John soon.
Danny you are missed. Your guitar playing and song writing is in a league of its own. Your music is as meaningful and relevant today as it was when it came out on vinyl. May God keep you safe and well.
I'd never heard this before. heartbreaking.
RIP Danny, forever amongst the stars
Work of art.

Danny this song guarantees your legend legacy!!!! Hope you have found peace.
@MusicalTree3 - his blanket of warmth and love is enormous . from england to the world and in texas, too. cheers

.....ich will das unterstreichen, diese wunderbare Musik die du uns hinterlassen hast ist einzigartig.
Nick Drake finally got his day in the sun... Danny deserves his.
Danny was possibly my favorite of the two.
Rip danny a true legend so u are 😥🎸
Very nice song....
The intro guitar is wonderfully sublime.

Absolutely beautiful music
Just perfect.

It's a pity nobody understood his music and he didnt recieve his credit due :(
I've been thinking his playing is Peter Green's. I love them both
Music beetwen thr earth & sky⛲
Those that know, know 👌
I’ve just this week discovered his music. What have I been missing. Dragon fly is incredible.
Oh please. You are not in some select inside info club. Millions knew of Danny
Gorgeous!
He's singing about the mountain range the dissects my home state of Washington. Loved his work on kiln house.
Incredible talent.
Wow, just heard this version for the first time here. I'm stunned. Thank you Raskvidh. Danny, may you be wrapped in Light & Love, You're A Beautiful Soul, Man.
Phenomenal, haunting tones.

I got into FM and devolved through the music back to peter green and Danny Kirwan. What a guy.
'Mary Jane' & 'Best Girl in The World' are not available here..Thank you very much-appreciate it.Danny was/is a genius musician sadly overlooked.
i like to think that martin and the band gave their all for danny and danny all for them. every second counts
James Prichard "Martin"? Who's that now?
@@Jah_Rastafari_ORIG Martin Birch, their engineer and maybe Martin Rushant, another engineer in the studio.
Dead at age 68, June 12, 2018. R.I.P.
Great song
@kenan my friend, "dust" is the fantastikest song creation I have heard. It is truly a masterpiece of English, which you have as wonderful a command as I do. I have enjoyed your selections of songs and wish you and yours a lot of love and happiness , danny too
My favorite FM Guitarist. I hope you are well.
Mine too, always thought that he should be the one famous guy for his guitar tone.
there he is in all his glory . a new photo . thanks . notice the extra syllables in the second sky, they are priceless. and MusicalTree3 always writes great stuff for danny
R.I.P Danny
Siempre escucho tu música querido Danny. Descansa en paz.
What a beautiful song
PLEASE upload the rest of this album for the rest of us who have been looking for it forever!! If you are lucky enough to come across a copy, it will cost you big buck$..Please share it with the rest of us Kirwan fans! Thanks!
Kirwan...♥️🎸🔥👏
saddened by the news of Danny's passing
Wow just such an amazing song
Danny you're the best
A true legend. Rip.
RIP Danny
Great tune.
Saw him in f.m. with Welch some great tunes from them.
Beautiful
Great tune
they will never make music like this ever again.
It’s annoying how it’s almost impossible to find Danny’s albums on CD, or music streaming services!
I consider myself lucky that I still have my Second Chapter LP,I bought it for one song only, Ram Jam City, but then I discover the whole album was filled with beautiful tunes!❤
greetins from Belgium !
&
Enjoying this gem
Wouldn’t it be great if Mick would do a tribute to Danny like he did for Peter.
I believe all of the songs are already on youtube. Just search for each one:) If you cant find one, then tell me and I will upload it ;)
I always prefered these songs to the much later Buckingham/Nicks Fleetwood pop slop..Great guitar work of Peter, Danny..Kiln House and Then Play On especially...
A different take than what was on the Second Chapter album, but still enjoyable. No harpsichord here, Danny's vocal harmony comes through beautiful.
