His father, Labhrás, was a singer of note both for the fine quality of his baritone voice, as well as his honest connection to songs in the Irish language. In the 1960s, Gael Linn issued an LP featuring four (two to a side) of the father's singing. While Labhrás, the son, is a fine singer in his own right, he life's path has drawn him into the horseman's life, where he is acknowledged both for his hands-on skills and his understanding of the business of racing" Is it the referred to father's LP on Gael Linn?

14 Jan 10 - 10:20 AM (#2811775) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Labhrás Draper From: MartinRyan Sounds like an EP rather than LP - and my mind's eye begins to see something! BTW, I asked about the Irish version as a simple check on a name which I didn't recognise in this context. Regards |
