Moments like this make up for all of Mudcat's quirks (meaning us, not Max's technical nightmares....tho' moments like this make up for those, too, I hope).

Like Don, I'll probably continue with the Warners' version, at least some of the time (though Harrigan and Braham are worth a consider in their own right).

Anyone interested in those fellows of immense influence Harrigan and Braham, BTW, ought to check out Mick Moloney's brilliant album 'McNally's Row of Flats', as should anyone with any curiosity at all about Irish-American music. Here's a link:

Best thing himself has ever done, IMHO, and that's saying sumpn.

Thanks for a great thread on an old-friend song, Joe.
