Great stuff, Peter, Jen & Jimmy : exactly my sort of music.  Only listened to "Crazyman Michael" so far, but "Fields of Athenry" will be next, as that is absolutely one of my favourites.  The best version I know is the one linked from "In Callandar" : http://www.incallander.co.uk/music/fields of athenry.wav.  I used to know who sung this version, but it escapes me at this moment ...

When are they touring deepest Kent, Peter ?



** Phil.

many bands sing it, practically every irish/scots folk band has done a version. the dubliners version i think is one of the best, bands that also have a version are the corries, drop kick murphys, wolftones and the scottish wolfstones

4 degrees today, things getting slushy. lets hope its the start of the great melt. im away working next week which means lots of driving around the north. dont fancy doing it in snow drifts.

best regards

i like the traditional folk music

she sings the fields of athenry well, being a celtic man i know that song well:)
