Sailor Posted September 9, 2016 Share #1 Posted September 9, 2016 (edited) Thanks Kevin for the CD's. I got them today and have enjoyed listening to them. They remind me a bit of Tommy Makem and the Clancey Brothers. I am no longer on the exec of the Legion but I will mention the music to them. Forgot to mention that as I was listening to them a friend came by to drop off a bed. He heard them and recognized them. He had heard them on you tube. The bed is for a swarm of relatives coming in for Janets birthday party this weekend. We are having a do at the Legion and are expecting about 100 people. I only had 80 at my party. Hey, it is an island and this is what we do. Edited September 9, 2016 by Sailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sailor Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share #6 Posted September 23, 2016 I think my favorites are "Whiskey in the jar" and "Leave her Johnny, leave her" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin-vic-b.c. Posted September 23, 2016 Share #7 Posted September 23, 2016 I think my favorites are "Whiskey in the jar" and "Leave her Johnny, leave her" Leaver Johnny is fantastic. They had a few others they wanted to put on but they tried to keep the Songs of the Sea theme going. Some may recall that Johnny Cash did a song "Sam Hall". Knackers does a fantastic version I hope will be on their next disc. The boys have been approached by a pro record producer wanting them to do a vinyl disc in the new year. Paddy on the Railway (Dubliners) and Sam Hall I am hoping will be on that. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
