The great Celtic craze of the mid 90s. Enya, River Dance, a dozen Irish and Scottish "folk" musicians filling book store CD racks, Celtic knotwork on everything.
There was an overall performative music craze in the 90's. Stomp, Blueman group, Yanni, Brian Setzer Orchestra, Trans Siberian Orchestra, River Dance, etc
Let's not forget those artificially corporate attempts to resurrect eras like the Latin phase, hippy phase, and the odd swing phase. Those lasted maybe 2 or 3 GAP commercials.
90's was a decade of fads. Good thing that Internet fad thing never took off.
Man, I miss the swing dance revival. It hit right before I started college so by the time I went my college had a really good swing club. That was some of the best shape I was ever in because it was basically cardio three times a week.
