GUEST,Bobby O'Brien Obit: Dermot O'Brien (22 May 2007) (10) RE: Obit: Dermot O'Brien (22 May 2007) 24 May 07

Dermot played accordion on my latest CD release (2004). Shortly after, his lovely wife died. Shortly after that, Dermot was diagnosed with lung cancer. Sad ending of a legend. So many of his songs have become standards. Among them "There Has To Be An End To it Someday", "Farewell to Galway", "The Waterford Girls", and "Over The Hills to County Mayo".
You could drop a needle on any irish LP from the 1970s and recognize that it was Dermot producting it instantly. He produced albums for Dermot Henry, Margo, Kathleen Largey, Larry Cunningham, Dermot Hegarty, Betty Reilly and The Escorts, and countless others.
"...and I hope to meet in future years the Turfman from Ardee"
