An excellent version. None of today's Irish country crop ' can sing these songs. We need the songs now' instead of all the country music thrown at us on local radio.

It was a great honour for me that you invited me to play Indian tabla and Middle Eastern bongo on two songs on this album.
Is Gerry still alive do you know as i used to know him in London in 1968/69 and as a child when he travelled with the Carrickfords Is this the same Gerry he looks the same?

I remember Patsy playing in Buncrana many years ago. What an artist. This song has become immortal in Donegal folklore. Up there with Mary from Dungloe in our international anthems.
Watched him in Ballykissangel and his character was my favorite. Seeing from where he drew at least part of that character was pretty cool.
Unbelievable- gave me goosebumps! How talented they all were. Paddy Cole a gem 💎
❤
My mother died a year ago and I will miss her voice and loving ways....I miss you mama and when the time comes for it is my turn then I will see you again in paradise.....:)
Usless backin big tom very good of course
Love my mum even no ur looking down on me every day ull always be in my heart
Love you Big Tom ❤ listen to you always ..love your songs they mean the world to me and are so true words xx❤xx
Some craic
Very good singer nice to hear the old songs
Still one of my favourite songs from when I first heard them play it In the old local in Myrtleville. <3
All those musicians are as dead on the inside as the tramp. How anybody could play shite "music" like that is truly beyond me.
❤ love this very good cover of George strait ❤
I seen big tom play many times in cricklewood many a time in the late 80’s early 90’s..i was a kid really..sneaking out and going to Irish nightclubs.. oh they were the days ☘️🇮🇪🍀
Great story of a great man.
