The Jarvey Was A Leprechaun, recorded by the pretty un-cool Val Doonican, is a nonsense tour of Ireland, including the line "They heard him say that Galway Bay was frozen in July" [for clarity, it isn't actually: that's the point!]/mudcat.org/thread.cfm?threadid=7080#42517. Jez Lowe wrote "The Wrong Bus" for the WW1 commemorations, mentioning Passchendale. Can find no musical links to it, outwith Mudcat or within [all search results are too early, leading to folks who've used the 3 words in the chat]. Robb Johnson did a ?trilogy of CDs about his own grandfather's/great-uncle's involvement there, and surely Coope, Boyes & Simpson have stuff in their repertoire on Passchendale.
