07 Feb 12 - 03:49 PM (#3303880) Subject: RE: Jerry O'Reilly causes Havoc in Heaven From: Fergie The song 'Havoc in Heaven' was penned by Robbie O'Connell not long after the great Frank Harte died. The humour in the lyrics centers around the mayhem and craic that ensues when Frank arrives above at the Pearly Gates and starts organising singing sessions. It is the title track on Jerry's new album, and to hear this very clever Robbie O'Connell song is worth the price of the CD. |

07 Feb 12 - 04:01 PM (#3303887) Subject: RE: Jerry O'Reilly causes Havoc in Heaven From: GUEST Living Ghosts/Isoldes Chapel is a more serious tribute to the late Frank Harte written by Pat "The Verse" Burke and well worth a listen.Looks like a great collection of songs. Well done, Jerry. Should be a great night. |

09 Feb 12 - 11:31 AM (#3304910) Subject: RE: Jerry O'Reilly causes Havoc in Heaven From: Fergie Yes Guest, Pat "The Verse" Burke (a prolific songwriter from Bray/Ballybrack/Dublin) wrote Living Ghosts/Isolde's Chapel as a tribute to Frank Harte just a few days after Frank died. It's a great song and Jerry sings it very well. If memory serves me right Jerry and Pat worked together on the air. Fergus |

Well engineered and a pleasure to listen to from start to finish. See you on Friday Jerry. |

16 Feb 12 - 03:58 AM (#3309317) Subject: RE: Jerry O'Reilly causes Havoc in Heaven From: zozimus One more day to go! Don't forget it's an early start, 8.00 pm. Interesting George should mention "rough uncut". This will be your last chance to see George rough and uncut. He will be getting rid of the beard and mop on the top to raise funds for charity, so bring yer camera for an old-time sake photo. |

17 Feb 12 - 01:55 PM (#3310167) Subject: RE: Jerry O'Reilly causes Havoc in Heaven From: GUEST,Pat 'deVerse' Burke Yes, I wrote Isolde's Chapel over a few months when Frank died back in 2005. I had a different air originally, which didn't really work. Jerry rang me one day and suggested I try 'Skibbereen', which works very well. Funny thing is, Jerry sings this song more than I do now! See you all at the launch |
