Owen Woodson Happy Birthday O.J. Abbott (1872-1962) (11) RE: Happy Birthday O.J. Abbott 02 Sep 12

I asked Edith Fowke about his "Irish" accent once. Probably because I couldn't pin it down to any particular region, it has always sounded a shade stage Irish to me.

She said that he sang pretty much as he spoke, so I've come to suspect that he had absorbed a multiplicity of regional Irish accents from the people he grew up among.
