Subject: RE: Slieve Galleon Braes. From: Billy the Bus Date: 28 Jul 03 - 02:11 PM There's a tribute to Tony McAuley on the BBC Website. You'll find other tributes to him if you do a Google search on his name. He must have been quite a guy. I also found the following refererence.. THE TONY MCAULEY MEMORIAL RECITAL Featuring AVALON Venue The Renewal Centre Adm. £8 Avalon is a Northern Irish ensemble with strong classical and traditional roots. They perform gems of Celtic and American folk and traditional music, interwoven with music by composers such as Bach, Mozart and Tchaikovsky, as well as their own original compositions. Along with violins, viola and cello Avalon performs with uillean pipes, whistle, flute, guitar and bodhran. Maybe they were the group he sang with? Best of luck with the contact PJ has given you.

Subject: RE: Slieve Galleon Braes. From: GUEST,PJ Curtis Date: 28 Jul 03 - 01:13 PM DEar MJ, The prog you were listening to lat evening was a tribute to the late Tony McAuley, a great TV music producer / singer/ musician with BBC N.I, who died of cancer in early June. The recording of Sliabh Galleon Breas was sung by Tony himself...recorded a year before he died. To optain a copy f the song you could contact Peter Browne, Radio 1, RTE, Dubln 4 who might be able to help you. I do know the song was never released commercially. Hope this helps, PJC |
