Brady’s first solo album, Welcome Here Kind Stranger is his second (and final) folk recording prior to his embarking on a successful, long-term foray into the realm of mainstream rock. Its title is a phrase taken from one of the album’s songs: “The Lakes of Pontchartrain”. The album was initially released (vinyl and cassette) on Dónal Lunny’s Mulligan label (LUN024) in 1978 and was voted “Folk Album of the Year” by Melody Maker magazine. The album was never officially released on CD due to a breakdown in the relationship between Brady and the Mulligan label and remained out of print for many years, until finally re-mastered and released in 2009 on Brady’s own label, PeeBee Music. The songs on Welcome Here Kind Stranger are highly arranged – instruments are heard then disappear as they are replaced by others. Two of the songs on the album are long ballads – “I Am A Youth That’s Inclined To Ramble” and “The Lakes of Pontchartrain”. The latter song had been recorded previously by Planxty on Cold Blow and the Rainy Night, though Brady’s version is slightly different. He later recorded it in Irish as “Bruach Loch Pontchartrain” for the 2002 compilation album Eist Vol.2: Éist Arís, Songs In Their Native Language. The historical context of an Irishman in Louisiana is unclear. It may be set during the Battle of New Orleans.wikipedia.org
