Subject: RE: Tune Req: Music stores in NYC...
As I understand from Shay the rerelease of the Battering Ram nets them no money at all from Rounder. Haven't seen Shay now in about 5 years now, it's been a lot longer since I've seen the rest. Decky used love to sing Arlo Guthrie's "Coming Into Los Angeles", don't know why. Quite a good singer as is Shay & Johnny. The only tape I have of that bunch, sorry Declans not on it. It was after Declan went back home. On it are Shay Walker, Johnny Beggin, Johnny Mullins & Greg Cotter. I'm don't remember what's on that tape except an Aussie song "Swag All On My Shoulder" & a great version of Nancy Whiskey called "The Longford Weaver" both sung by Greg. I can probably dig it up & check it out but it was after Declan was gone & I know he's not on it. I believe it was a copy of a practice that Shay gave me because I was looking for those 2 above mentioned songs. the tape probably goes back 15-20 years. Good Luck Barry
