Hi there - a couple of questions from New Zealand:
1. Does anyone know the Jack Daly song that contains the words 'it's over the hill I am going' and 'the big white house over the hill' ???
(I'd love to be able to hear it again after 60+ years)
2. Are any of his songs available to purchase on CDs ?

If I walk about then minutes up the road from my house I can see the mountains of Mourne :D

@mbsbpb1 what part of Ireland did your grandfather come from? His voice sounds so like my late husband's. He came from Kilkenny.

I need to whistle this for my Drama Exam for being Stanley in The Birthday Party :P

This is a very beautiful piece of music.
It's truly underappreciated; it really deserves more views than this.
5/5 stars.
I've got to join in. Jack Daly was my grandfather(we are his three grandchildren) and I loved him very much. It's so lovely that other people are enjoying listening to him now. Our mother would be so happy and so proud.
