Yipes, Genie! I really did type "November" into the search box, but all that came up was the "good song for November" thread. I must have done something wrong. And I wouldn't have checked it again if not for your suggestion. The list of results is truly mind-boggling! Whoda thunk??? Meanwhile, one of the songs that turned up when I re-ran the search - Skibbereen - has a very special meaning for me. My maternal grandmother was from Skibbereen, and family lore says she was attending Mass in Cork Cathedral when news came of Kevin Barry's execution. Any Irish historians out there know if that can be true? Can anyone tell me if there are any recordings that contain "Skibbereen?" I can gat the sense of the tune from the MIDI, but would also like to hear it sung. Any suggestions? Thanks again, Genie! M.
