Subject: RE: Explore: Raglan Road 2
Just want to say John MacLaughlin has added a fine essay to my webpage all about this song.
For those who don't know:-
John McLaughlin is a native of Donegal's Inishowen Peninsula, long resident in Scotland. He is the author of the acclaimed book 'One Green Hill: journeys through Irish songs' (2003).
I'm hoping before long to have a whole website devated to Raglan Road. If anyone else has contributions - I'd be pleased to hear from them. Bonnie Shaljean is working on a contribution and Declan who runs the Dublin folk club has offered an amusing parody. I just need to think up something vaguely intelligent to say introducing all this lot!
