Thank you for posting pictures that show many stages of Ronnie's life, including the last years. He always made such a strong impression in photographs, on records and in person. This tune is a wonderful epitaph for him; you are to be congratulated, pddybrry.

Bono paid a fitting tribute to Ronnie with these fine words - "Ronnie has left his earthly tour for one of the heavens. They need him up there, God is lonely for a voice louder than his own".

God bless him...always..

@RichinNOLA It seems Dylan did a lot of "borrowing", especially in the early days...but then so did Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Dave Guard and many others: something about all human progress being based on plagiarism. I guess the trick is to know who to borrow from.

Eleanor sings "Restless Farewell" and Ronnie sings "The Parting Glass". Listen and you can clearly hear the two different melodies. It's a beautiful arrangement. Thanks for posting.
