Carnival of Irish Heritage and Culture, 10th Edition

Fingers crossed, there should be a video above.

This post is my entry into the Carnival of Irish Heritage and Culture which this time invites participants to share what they most love about Irish culture. My contribution (assuming the video appears) is Parisienne Walkways by Phil Lynott and Gary Moore for no other reasons than that they are Irish and it’s a great song. Saying that, they did make an enormous contribution to Irish popular music and certainly enhanced it’s reputation around the world, destroying the misconception that it was all middle-of-the-road pop, and bearded men trilling away in hairy jumpers.

Because it’s Friday (again)

Here is some music. Once again, kind of, family history related. This was number one one the day I was born. Get your dancing shoes on . . .
