DEDICATED TO DANNY DOYLE. My favorite Danny Doyle song, set to my vacation pictures from Mid-Coast Maine. Heartfelt thanks to Alison and Bill for the memories. I do not own this song, but respect the writer/publisher.

  • I used to go to Tommy Makem's Irish Pavilion in Manhattan to see Danny Doyle, one of the best live performers I have ever seen. When he did Killkelly Ireland there was not a dry eye in the house. Thank you for posting.

  • @TomChair -I love Danny! Did you read about his surgery and retirement from performing? Very sad, indeed. I met him a few times and corresponded through email. Wonderful and talented man! When did you see him in New York? Is Tommy Makem's Irish Pavilion still there?? Best Wishes

  • Beautiful photos... amazing song. Thank you.

  • @chisaoboy - thanks! I discovered Danny in the late 80's. I've seen him a few times in concert and I communicated with him through his email. i don't think he is doing very well these days. I have all of his recordings since the early 80's. The pic are from Camden, Maine and that vicinity. Just beautiful. With St. Paddy's Day coming, I am full of nostalgia with this song.

  • Thanks! It is Danny is not doing very well and can no longer sing. This is dedicated to him to promote his beautiful voice and musicianship.

  • He should stick to Irish songs. This is an old Scottish song and needs to be sung by a Scot to convey the real emotion of a patriot. Listen to the version by North Sea Gas and you'll hear how it should be sung. There's no comparison. And why do you Irish keep singing our folk music anyway? We don't bother with yours after all. And please, don't give us that 'Celtic connection' nonsense. Celtic is just a meaningless generic term. We're no more Irish than the English are German. Cheers, anyway.

  • @TomChair I'm not surprised. Killkelly Ireland is such an amazing song... and how Danny sings it! I once gave the recording to a friend who listened to it on her way home from work. She told me the next day that she had to pull over and cry.

  • @shambaby  Sad tae hear that about Danny.......I stay near to the Tay, not heard this song before, but fell in love with Danny's version of "Step It Out Mary" an awesome song......

  • I've loved this song--and Mr. Doyle's version--for so long. Thanks so much for posting it. I haven't heard it in years.

  • Very Very nice! Great Song!
