  • One of the best versions of this lovely Irish song. Beautiful harmonies. Like so many of your postings, it brought back happy and tearful memories of years in Edinburgh in the great daysof the Scottish folk revival of the 60s and 70s. Many thanks Linda, When they canonise you, I'll be there!!!

  • i like the harmonies

    was there a double bass in the background?

    even tho it was recorded a long time ago it still feels fresh

    the promise of the day is a great album

  • Nice one! But it's Skreen - a village in Sligo - not Screen

  • @psb0910 yhankfully she doent look like him

    re the piano im very folk oriented but the piano really grows on you in this case

  • @ramron333 Thanks for the recommendation! I'd never heard of Cara Dillon. Her voice makes me think of a female Dougie MacLean (which is praise indeed). And I do like her version of Verdant Braes of Screen although I found the piano accompaniment less to my taste. But, yes, remarkable performer. Thanks for the tip!!

  • @MDBellamy i agree ive heard both versions

    however i think cara dillon (@the cellar bar Is the best ive ever heard

  • Absolutely wonderful! Many many thanks for posting this!

  • One of my top favourite Corrie songs. Clearly a lot of thought went into the arrangement and harmonies. Paddie did another version with the Fureys in 1968 that (for me) actually tops this one and then recorded it again on a later cassette.

    Beautiful recording. Thanx, Linda.

  • nice one

  • yea one of my favourites as well
