RIP Mr. McCullough. I always enjoy the Joe Cocker segment in Woodstock.

Henry McCullough was left incapacitated following a heart attack in 2012. In the years shortly before that I used to enjoy hearing him play locally in Nothern Ireland, solo or with one accompanianist. I liked the acoustic sets at least. I'd like to see lyrics of his own songs; can anyone add some. All I see on line is Failed Christian.

I'm going to meet my maker
A firm believer
Of spirit in music
There's a prayer in a song

Henry was the only Irishman to play at Woodstock.
