G'day again,

The Tradition sampler CD (where I gleaned the catalog # for Lark in the Morning CD) does, on inspection, say that the notes are new ones by Liam Clancy ... so the LP did not have them.

ard mhacha: I now have the CD to hand: Liam Clancy describes the car being bailed up by "The B specials" - who had "shot and killed a young man near Keady the previous year" - when they were returning from a night with Paddy Tunney, in Letterkenny, County Donegal ... and claims they were let pass on because one of the occupants had trod in '... "doggy doo" (as Catherine so delicately put it) ...' and the smell was pretty ripe by that point!

I have to get back editing February Mulga Wire ... and that has just been slightly adjusted by the arrival of Malcolm Douglas' new revision of the EFDSS Classic English Folk Songs book. Now I have to shuffle content and write a new review! (Well, thuis is now posted in the morning from my work 'puter, as Mudcat was speaking but not listening all last night - this message:
