The Four Irish Folk Songs. Content Warning.
Introduction I saw this meme and thought I wonder if I can categorise Irish Folk Songs using these five headings, maybe two songs in each category. I know that this may not fit with the various Folk purists but I will share it in various Facebook Folk Groups and see what reactions I get.

'Pet Sounds'
What new can one say about Pet Sounds? Entire books have already been written about Brian's master opus; numerous documentaries address it in detail. The May 1966 LP has been mentioned and detailed in almost every list of the greatest albums of the rock era. To me and many others, it is indeed the greatest album of all time, though it typically competes with a number of albums by Bob Dylan and the Beatles, of late often beaten in that category by the Beatles' Revolver album, released later in 1966.
