Subject: RE: Gaelic:Kirree fo Niaghtey-English Lyrics
Unfortunately the quality of the Kennedy recordings, despite being the only commercially available of Mona Douglas's singing, leave much to be desired. I would recommend either of the following cassettes as being of better quality recordings of the song in quaestion.

GOW ARRANE - 16 Traditional Manx Gaelic Songs performed unaccompanied by various solo artists.

MANNIN VEG VEEN - Arraneyn as Kiaulleeagh Tradishoonagh Ellan Vannin (Traditional Music & Songs of the Isle of Man) by Brian Stowell & George Broderick.

Both of those cassettes should be available from The Manx Museum, Douglas, Isle of Man.
