This is a very good version of this lovely song. This song was composed by Neil Mc Bride Feymore Creeslough about 1910. He died in 1942

After covering a very average version of this song myself I've got to say that "This is by far the best arrangement I've heard to date" Thank you for sharing. 5*

Hi Sean Just posted my appreciation of this lovely version. I have heard of a rock and a blues version. Has antone heard and can it be posted.

[MrSean677]

@Bigfrank364 not sure, I've searched google, no joy, there probly is out there, if you keep an eye out for an american band called Dropkick Murphys they sing a lot of Irish songs but the make them in a rock style so maybe they have it released, and if not now maybe in the future. I'm not sure about blues to be honest, not really to my taste

[Bigfrank364]

Lovely version , Has anyone got a rock or blues version
