I bought a CD at the weekend called "East Wind" by Andy Irvine & Davy
Spillane, containing Macedonian & Romanian music. Track 6 of said CD,
"Antice", contained a melody that sounded very familiar.... it is 90% the same
as the Uillean pipe melody on "The Sensual World", which is incidentally
played by .... Davy Spillane.

For info: Antice is a traditional melody, the CD was released in 1992 (3 years
after the release of TSW)

p.s. I also picked up a couple of "For Promotional Use Only" versions of the
TWW extra CDs for 10 (pounds) each. Upon examination they look uncannily like
bootleg versions....sorry Kate! (I think EMI can cope though!) They contain
Candle in the wind, Rocket Man & Rubberband Girl 12" as extra tracks. And have
some terrible photos of Kate! Bootleg city....
