- Horslips perform ‘Furniture’ live at the National Stadium in Dublin.
As part of ‘The Music Makers’ series, RTÉ filmed Celtic rock band Horslips performing at the National Stadium in Dublin on 13 February 1973.
TonyJohnson, presenter of the music programme ‘Spin Off’ greets the audience of a packed National Stadium.
Hello and good evening everybody, it’s my very great pleasure to introduce you to Horslips.
The band takes to the stage and Barry Devlin the band’s vocalist and bass player introduces the song ‘Furniture’.
A sort of song we’ve been doing for quite a long time and we still like it so we’re still doing it.
The song is written by band member Jim Lockhart and is
On the surface no pun intended it’s all about tables and chairs, but there’s deep religious, sexual and political significance in almost every word, and philosophical significance as well, at least so Jimmy says and wrote it and as nobody else understands it, he should know.
Horslips members include Jim Lockhart on keyboards and flute, Barry Devlin on bass guitar, Charles O’Connor on guitar, Eamon Carr on drums and Johnny Fean also on guitar.
‘The Music Makers’ was an RTÉ Light Entertainment series which featured well-known performers in both pop and jazz music.
This episode of ‘The Music Makers’ was broadcast on 28 May 1973. The producer is Bill Keating.

I saw Horslips at The Morris Stage in Morristown, New Jersey in 1977. They were great and the ticket was $2.00. Those in attendance were also given a 45 on green vinyl - Sure the boy was green/Exiles.
Echos of my youth, what a fantastic band they were. Loved them then and still love hearing them now almost 50 years on❤️

Are you anything to the Folly Mc Daids?
I'm not aware of any connection, Liam.
As far as I know, the McDaid side of my family came from County Tyrone sometime in the late 19th century.
Gets go in at 1 min into
The drums and keyboard are awful ... I love these guys music but the drums and keys ruin the whole thing....
Strange, I had just been thinking how good the drumming is - exactly like on the album.
@@johnshort5003 that's a shame if it was the exact same on the album.....
