Apologies if this site is well know to readers of these forums, but I stumbled across this site a few days ago and I think it is Internet gold!
The [url=http://bit.ly/1fJbAJa]The Doegen Records Web Projects[/url] is an archive of recordings made from 1928-31 by Dr. Wilheim Doegen of native Irish speakers from 17 counties. Access to the archive is completely free. It is absolutely fascinating listening.
It’s a great site. My only complaint would be that it could locate the speakers better. As we all know, in some counties there were very different dialects spoken in different parts, so it would be nice to know from where in the county the speakers were.
Is féidir leat cuartú sna cainteoirí chomh math. Tá a lán eolais faoi chuile chainteoir, cuir i gcás Seán Ó Tuairisc: http://www.doegen.ie/doegen/node/2387.
An t-aon rud amháin a bhfuil cuma aisteach air, dar liom, ní osclóidh foirm le fairnéis phearsanta má dhéanann tú cliceáil ar ainm an chainteora, cé gur furasta é sin a réiteach.

Especially if any of the Galway speakers are from Cois Fharraige – for learners from the O’Siadhail book.

Pure gold! Is fíor duit a Danny! Buíochas as é a chuir i gcuimhne domh.
