Subject: RE: Seamus Ennis Radio Recordings Request
That the one.

I saw Ennis a few times during the week before the Lisdoonvarna appearance that's shown in that film, which was his last (he died two months later). In fact Tony MacMahon filmed one of those occasions for another TV thing and interviewed me after that. I only got to see that twenty five or so years later. But that's a whole other story.

Eamonn de Buitleir's one is on YouTube, not the best of copies but watchable. Beautifully made film and it shows both his (EdeB's) background as a maker of nature documentaries and as a musician.

I'll try chase up the radio links when I have the computer fired up.
