GUEST,Fred McC Lyr Req: Bean an Leanna (15) RE: Lyr Req: Bean an Leanna 06 Jun 13

Thanks for that Martin. Joe Heaney made two commercial recordings of Bean an Leanna, the first in 1957 for Gael Linn, and the second in 1964 for Topic.

The Topic was, I believe, reissued on Ossian and I have no idea whether it is still available. The Gael Linn, however was reissued on their excellent Seoltaí Séidte (Setting Sail)-Ceolta Éireann 1957-1961. Gael Linn CEFCD 184.

The only other commercial recording I know of comes from a Cló Iar Chonnachta PRC. Tógfaidh Me Mo Sheolta, where it is sung by Pat Phádraic Tom Ó Conghaile of Spiddal.
