Killkelly Ireland/Peter Jones

Either I don't know how to use a search engine or something is weird. I'm sure there are threads on this song as I'm pretty sure I remember reading them. Anyhow my Lyrics & Knowledge search turned up nothing, so here is my question. Can anyone here inform me on how I might contact Peter Jones? I'd like to get permission to include this song on an upcoming recording and he doesn't appear to be represented by Harry Fox Agency.

Would it be helpful for you to know who else recorded this? perhaps you could contact them and ask them. I know that both The Cast and Mai Hernon both recorded it. The Cast have a Myspace, and I could probably contact Mai, if that helps.

here's one of several threads on Kilkelly Ireland (I think just one l in the search turns it up?)

--I meant--one l in the first syllable in the search box...

Marc, the song itself is in the DT, here. If you scroll down to the bottom, there are links to previous threads about it. I didn't read through them, so I don't know if any contain contact info for Peter Jones, but they might contain other relevant or helpful stuff.

Who is Robbie O'Connell? here is the link to The Cast's (Mairi and Dave) myspace:

Do you want me to contact Mai too? not clear from your response.

could someone please correct the thread title to Kilkelly (one L) so it can be retrieved in searches?

You might want to contact SING OUT magazine. A number of years ago, this song was one they featured with music, chords and lyrics. They may have contact info. I believe at that time the author was in the Washington DC area.

Yes Marc - this song IS in the lyrics database here - it's just that you spelt the name wrong. And there's details of the copyright there too.

Thanks Peregrina! well spotted.

Peter and Steve Jones are listed as the Publisher for this song. I'm pretty sure the song was written by both of them. Hope that helps.
