They'll only be online briefly, but today's (21/1/7) and last Sunday's programmes from John Bowman's archive programme Bowman Sunday Morning feature Delia Murphy singing and various friends talking about her. You can download the programmes and listen to them, but they don't stay online for long. |

21 Feb 21 - 04:49 AM (#4094081) Subject: RE: Folklore: Delia Murphy programmes on RTE Radio From: GUEST,jim bainbridge The John Bowman programme on RTE 1 radio at 0830 this morning was the second of two programmes about Delia Murphy - it was about her war work in Rome. If you don't know about this, and haven't read Aidan O'Hara's excellent biography 'I'll live till I die' don't miss it... The first programme was about her singing career. I'm not sure if these are repeats of those above, 14 years ago, but if you haven't heard of Delia Murphy, or even if you have, they're well worth a listen. |
