Nothing pleases me more than getting comments from people your age. Its very encouraging.

Glad I could please you. I love opera (not very common among my peers) and was quite surprised to find a recording of this one.

Hello again Merrihew...nice to hear another fine example from your record collection....

John McCormack the excellent Irish tenor. I first heard him when I was a kid. It was a 9 inch (strange size) 78 rpm my parents had. He was singing 'The Rose of Tralee' & 'I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen' I still have that disc to this day. Wonderful !

I just fancied a bit of 'heavy early McCormack' too. This fits the bill. What a GREAT voice. Thanks, and a Merry Christmas to you also!.

What a nice Christmas gift. Pure silk satin timbre, and such lovely, urgent legato!

Thanks, Roger. Merry Christmas to you.
