Martin,

Pat Kilbride comes from Ireland. He has played music from an early age, learning first the classical piano and then later becoming involved in blues, pop, folk - good time music! - and finally developing a deep love for Irish traditional music. During these years he taught himself guitar and cittern.

In 1975 he went to England to study and at the same time began a period of intense musical activity. He became involved in an experimental kind of folk club neral Bolton; he made some films and wrote the music for them; he played solo at various clubs and universities in the north of England. Then he joined Battlefield Band and worked with them for a year...

Stewie,

I don't have the recording but I have a xerox of someone else's transcription of the recording.
He has 'hearth' as you have and 'coat' where you have 'brogues'. I can't tell you whether he's reliable.
