Danny Carnahan Lyr Req: Blackdaughter / Black Dodder (7) RE: Blackdaughter and other lost threads 26 Mar 99


In response to your "Blackdaughter" query, the song is actually "The Black Dodder" by Mick Fitzgerald, a Dublin writer sadly underappreciated. The Black Dodder is a tiny little river that empties into the Liffey in Dublin. We learned it from Mick about 20 years ago and I included it on "Journeys of the Heart" in 1989 (though without lyrics printed...sorry). CDs are still available from me at Post-Trad Productions, 725 Pomona Ave., Albany CA 94706, if you'd like one. Thanks for remembering it, though. It is a lovely song, as are most of Mick's songs. --Danny Carnahan
