There’s a great mix of old and new on Tom Dunne’s Alternative Irish Anthems, which hits the racks through RMG-Chart on July 22.

Along with the familiar – U2, Snow Patrol, The Boomtown Rats, Thin Lizzy, Sinéad O’Connor etc. – the generously-endowed 37-track collection includes such long-lost gems as The Stars Of Heaven’s ‘All About You’, Microdisney’s ‘Birthday Girl’, The Blades’ ‘Hot For You’ and the first single by Shane MacGowan’s punk-era band The Nips, ‘Gabrielle’.
