    I am an American born man with distant Irish Heritage on my mother's side and there has never been something that draws me in more than these old Irish trad songs

    Can't and don't want to stop listening to this. Sang better than anyone I've heard, really gets me. I'm from where the pikemen were out under that moon. We remember, and your delivery here makes it stronger.
