The record
Title: Horslips – The Book of Invasions (A Celtic Symphony)
Year/Genre: 1976, Progressive Rock
Matrix #: DJLPA-10
Condition: Vinyl Near Mint
Cultural Facts:
-
The album is built as a concept piece around the mythological Irish text Lebor Gabála Érenn (“The Book of Invasions”), combining rock instrumentation with traditional Irish themes.
-
With this release, Horslips earned their only UK Top 40 album, reaching #39, marking their most visible crossover moment.
-
The band blends fiddle, flute, mandolin and whistles with guitar/bass/drums, positioning them as early “Celtic rock” forerunners and influencing later bands mixing folk and prog.
-
The original US pressing on DJM (DJLPA-10) is sought after by collectors for its faithful presentation of the mix and artwork — fewer high-grade copies circulate.

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
