Bobby Bob, Ellan Vannin (again) Lyr Req: Tarry Flynn (Shay Healy) (29) RE: Lyric req: You're a Rascal, Tarry Flynn. 13 May 99


Yes, indeed, peering through the dust, it was Johnny McEvoy on the Target label (made in the Republic of Ireland), but distributed by Pye Records (Sales) Ltd, first published 1968, 7N.17472.

The song is apparently credited to (Healy). However, the song on the other side (the A side) is called 'Nora', and is credited -

(words O'Casey, music trad.) (from The Plough and The Stars).

As I can't listen to 'Nora', and I can't bring it to mind, I'm not sure whether the information printed on the record is, as the technical wording has it, arse about face, bearing in mind earlier postings about 'Tarry Flynn'.

I haven't ploughed through the albums to find and compare the information there - I can't remember which album it was at all.

Shoh slaynt,

Bobby Bob
