Thread Name: seeking 'Farewell Johnny Miner' 1980s recording
Subject: “Farewell Johnny Miner” 1980s recording
I’m trying to identify an old recording of Ed Pickford’s sing “Farewell, Johnny Miner” from the 1980s.

I know Battlefield Band performed it, but the version I’m looking for was sung by an Irish woman with possibly another unaccompanied voice (or two) joining her in harmony. I can hear it in my mind’s ear but can’t remember who it was.

Does anyone remember this version? Unfortunately I donated my vinyl collection many years ago and I can’t find anything close to it on YouTube or other online resources.

Thanks in advance!
