  • john carty on banjo?

  • heck yes - check out his excellent banjo album "I Will If I Can" - and tell him he needs a US distributor for that one...

  • lol. same in Australia. I can't find it anywhere and it would be a great one for me to learn from.

  • there's also a new Patrick Street CD called "On the Fly" with John Carty playing banjo, fiddle, and flute - I don't know what the Australian distribution situation will be for that one!

  • Simon Jeffes an English man and founder member of the Penguin Orchestra wrote this song.

    He wrote it on a Harmonium he found in a back street of Kyoto while on tour in Japan in the early 80's.

    He also founded the Penguin Orchestra in the early 70's after falling ill while on holidays in the south of France.

  • Fantastic sound...Napoleon Dynamite!

  • Yeah, ok, that kicked ass. Never heard of these guys before, but I know an epic win when I hear one.

  • This is the most amazing thing ive ever seen in my entire life

  • fantastic playing absolutely dreadful P.A. Lets have the rhythm instruments louder than the lead, yeah that's a really great idea!

  • I like this version. The Penguin Cafe Orchestra was the original though, just to clear things up. It was written by Simon Jeffes around 1982, look it up. Patrick Street just did a cover...a very good one though i might add!

  • for a found irishman...dont let the devil win

  • the penguin cafe orchestra use alternative instruments and not traditional irish

  • um no, it was actually done by patrick street

  • search idiosyncratic

  • i love this song and that was a great cover but i wish people would stop saying this song os from ND, it was originally used in a film called Malcolm, by nadia tass, along with their telephone & rubber band tune and pauls dance all by the penguine cafe orchestra,
