The Táin is an album by Irish rock band Horslips. Their second studio album, it was Horslip's first attempt at making a concept album, an idea they would return to in 1976 with The Book of Invasions: A Celtic Symphony. The Táin was based on the Táin Bó Cúailnge (The Cattle Raid of Cooley), one of the most infamous legends of Early Irish literature, dealing with the war between Ulster and Connacht over a prize bull.

straight-out rockers like "Night Town Boy" and the Dylan-esque "Dearg Doom"; and one song that merges the group's Celtic, hard-rock, and art-rock sides perfectly, the highly erotic, bragging "Sword of Light" - neither Genesis nor any of the electric English folk bands ever sounded this ballsy

Q: Does the expression straight from the horse’s mouth have anything to do with actual horses? A: The expression, which means reliable or on good authority, has two possible origins. The most likely is that it comes from horse-racing circles: a tipster supposedly has inside information so good that it comes straight from the horse. According to the Random House Historical Dictionary of American Slang, the expression goes back to 1917. The second possibility is that the phrase comes from the world of horse-trading, but I can find no good evidence to support it. According to this explanation,.
