Gerry Timlin -- Danny Boy

Here's a rare Timlin performance. It's hard to get Gerry to sing this song, but the 1st time I heard him do it my jaw hit the floor. You can keep the 3 tenors. You can feel Gerrys voice when he sings this song (yes I mean FEEL it). This is not the best I've ever heard him do this, but Gerry does it better than anyone I've ever heard!!

Back in the 90s, when I was living in Delaware (and one of the 'inmates' at O'Friel's pub) I used to hear him and Tom live about once a month.

His Carrickfergus is likewise phenomenal.

I have to get down to the Philly area to his pub sometime soon. (I'm on NYC now. )

This is a rare treat indeed, yet as beautiful as ever! I used to go listen to Gerry every Fri. nite some years ago and it was a sanity saver for me at the time. I'm glad to find him and Tom again thru youtube. As Always you sounded lovely Gerry, xoxoxo Kellyann
