Gael Force - Hard times "come again no more"

[ciaranmcglinchey]

Mary Black! What can i say,,,,,, she is good and then there`s Mr Tommy Flemming. BRILLIANT

[smeejit]

Great version; the one by Alison Krauss, James Taylor, Mark O'Connor & Yo-yo Ma is another fave.

[medicvet]

@smeejit That version is my personal favorite, but this one is beautiful too.

I too really like this version of this song. The Tommy Fleming version is so commercial it overtook my facebook posting. This version is pure and simple, and a testament to Mary Black in her interpretation of good music. Awesome. Peace be with you.

This beatiful song helps me thru my hard times :-)

There are many great versions of this song, Mavis Staples maybe at top of the list, but this one may be her sternest competition. No coincidence I fear that it is the Irish and the descendants of Africans brought to this land in chains that feel it most deeply. Thanks for a great post, unavailable anywhere else.

I remember seeing the "Gael Force" special when it aired as part of a PBS pledge drive (I believe in the late 1990s); this is my favorite song in the show. Thank you for posting.

Did Tommy Fleming get that jacket from a yank tourist?? its brutal!!

[canadianmunkey]

Does anyone have a version of Jennifer Warnes covering this song?

[TheCathyLeach]

I loved this version with all the verses! It was song in the film "Georgia" by Mare Winngham found @ Utube by typing Georgia "The Concert" it is great there too because it is such a beautiful folk tune! :)

[fanchbrezoneg]

@ TheCathyLeach -The Mare Winningham is nice (but she does a mistake in the movie S Foster 1859 the reality is 1854 during a great depression),t the Bob Dylan's version is famous too

magnifique. une pure merveille de Stephen C Foster.

Un immense compositeur.

In fact, the whole ensemble is terrific!  And let us not forget the man who wrote this, and so many more - Stephen Foster!

Thanks to the musicians, producers, and poster!
