The Book of Invasions

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Book of Invasions: A Celtic Symphony is an album by the Irish celtic rock band Horslips. It was a concept album based on an adaptation of Irish legends built into a complex story. Released in 1976, it is usually considered their best work. It was their first UK top-40 album since "The Táin".

In 2005, the album was performed in its entirety by Horslypse, a Horslips Tribute Band based in Omagh, Northern Ireland.

The 20 year anniversary of this album was celebrated recently at a small gathering in Dublin organised by Horslips fans and was attended by some band members.
