Thread Name: Tam Lyn: any 'source singer' recordings?
Subject: RE: Tam Lyn: any 'source singer' recordings?
I can't bring Martin McDonagh's tune to mind at the moment. However, it is fairly widely known and turns up as What Put the Blood? that Paddy Doran used to sing, and which Paddy Tunney learned off him. What I meant was that I have a dim recollection of being told, or reading, that Bert rejigged the version of the tune which Isla Cameron sang.
Hammer horror version? There were plans to make a movie version in the late 60s/early 70s. However, I can't remember any such film ever being released and always assumed it had been shelved. Maybe the Elfin Queen got to it first.
