Actually, 'caroleeh' was wrong in 'correcting' Vicki.  Caroleeh
was thinking of the band Clannad (whose 1985 album was titled
"Macalla").

Clannad is composed of 5 peope:  Maire, Ciaran, and Pol Brennan, and
Noel and Padraig Duggan.  The first three are all the older siblings
of Enya, and the latter two are a couple of the Brennan family's uncles.

They've been around since the 70's (late?) and I hear they've changed
quite a bit, from jazzy to pop.  I've only got two of their albums
(Macalla/1985 and PastPresent, a best-of from last year).  Very
interesting stuff...
