NEWLY REMASTERED EDITION OF THE CLASSIC 1972 ALBUM BY IRISH PROGRESSIVE FOLK GROUP TIR NA NOG
REMASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES
WITH TWO RARE BONUS TRACKS
BOOKLET WITH FULLY RESTORED ARTWORK & NEW ESSAY

Esoteric Recordings are pleased to announce a new remastered edition of the classic 1972 album A TEAR AND A SMILE by TIR NA NOG. This legendary Progressive Folk duo featured the talents of LEO O'KELLY and SONNY CONDELL. Formed in Dublin in 1969, the duo travelled to London to make a name for themselves on the UK folk circuit, earning a contract with Chrysalis Records in 1970. Securing a support slot with Jethro Tull, TIR NA NOG came to the attention of a rock audience. The duo became a fixture on the concert circuit, opening for acts such as The Who, Elton John and Procol Harum and were also championed by John Peel. A TEAR AND A SMILE was released to acclaim in 1972 and featured a host of original, haunting and emotive music.

This Esoteric Recordings reissue has been newly remastered from the original CHRYSALIS RECORDS master tapes and features two bonus tracks drawn from the band's 1972 single and a booklet that fully restores all original album artwork with a new essay.
