Great video! I didn't see anything in the previous comments but it looks suspiciously like Christy is joined by some young Hothouse Flowers here... thanks for posting.
To think that Christy was a bank teller in Clonmel, Co. Tipperary and stayed at Annie Kehoes in Parnell Street and none of this might have happened except for the Bank Strike that took him to London and a whole new generation of Irish Music was born,
Actually, I dont think the High Kings have ever recorded this song... What I meant to say was the Waterboys version is better. HOWEVER.... the High Kings version of `THE GREEN FIELDS OF FRANCE` is one of the best I have heard!!!

The person singing harmony is terribly out of tune, but Christy's sing is superb as usual

Steeley span also did a version called `black jack davey`. I think the Highkings version of this song is better though!!
