This thread started in March of 1997. That's quite a while ago but I was hoping to get Dan (Liam's Brother) to post, if he can remember or dig up the information, the names of the people who e-mailed him versions of Billy O'Shea. I realize it's a long shot but I like to have names for who a version came from or who passed a version on.


Also, Graeme posted to the original thread and said he had a version of Billy O'Shea from Liverpool that, in Graeme's words, "..is not made up from couplets of other shanties.." If you're still out there, Graeme, please post your version.


Regards to all,
