In 1992 I heard Roy Bailey sing this song. It meant a lot because my mother had just died and we are a strongly matriarchal family. (It got mixed up somehow with "Listen more often to things than to beings", very cathartic!) I have found the name of the song and some old threads, but I can't find out which recording it's on (Roy's version please,not Christy Moore). By the way, does this mean I'm a proper Mudcatter now and no longer need to feel guilty cluttering up with inane remarks on BS threads?
