Hornpipe seeking 'Farewell Johnny Miner' 1980s recording (7) “Farewell Johnny Miner” 1980s recording 30 Aug 23


I’m trying to identify an old recording of Ed Pickford’s sing “Farewell, Johnny Miner” from the 1980s.

I know Battlefield Band performed it, but the version I’m looking for was sung by an Irish woman with possibly another unaccompanied voice (or two) joining her in harmony. I can hear it in my mind’s ear but can’t remember who it was.

Does anyone remember this version? Unfortunately I donated my vinyl collection many years ago and I can’t find anything close to it on YouTube or other online resources.

Thanks in advance!
