I saw this being sung by Johnny and Andy at a ''Sweeneys Men" reunion gig one year in Cork many years ago.

Great to hear this again, last heard on an LP from the 70s!

Terry Woods is the great unsung hero of the early 60s revival - a more modest genius you could never meet. Sweeneys wre cutting edge folk-rock pioneers when the Irish "scene" was far from trad friendly.
