Aidan Walsh: Master of the Universe

[4] The film includes commentary from Walsh's former business associates and contacts in the music industry, including musicians Simon Carmody (Golden Horde) and Gavin Friday (Virgin Prunes), radio presenters Gerry Ryan and Dave Fanning, and music journalist Richie Taylor.

[1] In a review, published in The Irish Times in October 2000, the documentary is described as "immensely entertaining and surprisingly touching" and that it "rightly tackles attitudes to Walsh and whether we are laughing with or at him".

[10] Taking advantage of low rents in the then largely derelict Temple Bar, he briefly operated a videography company and co-founded a music recording and rehearsal studio.

[4][12] With friends and connections in the city's music industry (including Simon Carmody and Gavin Friday), he signed "Ireland's fastest ever record deal" in 1987.

[10][13][14] After a number of attempted business ventures, Walsh contested the 1997 Irish general election, receiving just 43 first preference votes (0.12%) in the Dublin Central constituency.
