Music tribute to Frank McCourt author of Angela's Ashes

This song was inspired by Frank McCourt's best selling book 'Angela's Ashes'. The CD 'Songs From The Ashes' captures perfectly the mood of the book and the Limerick of the 1930's and 1940's. The songs are performed by local band Burning Embers who have come together especially for this project. There are still a few copies left, email phrec@eircom.net

"...I can only tell you how honoured I am that you undertook and completed such a demanding project. My wife Ellen and I just scratched our heads in wonder... " Frank McCourt, New York. Further info: phrec@eircom.net

I just learned Frank Passed away. I saw him and Malachy

in Chicago in 83 perhaps going a 2 man play, Called a Couple of Blagards. It was great, and little did I know his

book would come out years later. He was too young to die!

I don't think we will find another like him!
