| GUEST,Tom Patterson | any West Cork songs? (32) | RE: any West Cork songs? | 16 Nov 24 |
I mentioned my song about the loss of the Thomas Joseph earlier in this thread. I have since come across, in the Schools' Collection, the words of a song, "Thomas Joseph", presumably written not long after the incident in 1918. The song was written by Dan Mahony, known as "Dan the Fiddler". Apparently he was a well known local musician, poet and songwriter who wrote a number of other songs including "The Island of Cape Clear" which is also in the Schools' Collection. | |||
