The Bold Tommy Makem The Bold Tommy Makem
I finished writing this one for Tommy Makem on the eve of his passing and recorded it on the morning after his death. The Makems and the Folk World have lost one of the finest but his legacy lives on.
The Galway Shawl The Galway Shawl
The Irish equivalent to 'The Roads and Miles to Dundee'. It's a fun song to sing along with and an old family favourite. (for Aunt Sarah)
The Hills of Margaree The Hills of Margaree
The Lingerie Song The Lingerie Song
An outstanding composition. One of the finest pieces to be written since the Ould Testament. They should teach it in the schools!
The Roads and Miles to Dundee The Roads and Miles to Dundee
The Snowy Breasted Pearl The Snowy Breasted Pearl
Another family favourite. There are several versions of this song. I intend to record more of them in future albums.
