      My grandfather used to sing Spancil Hill, at the top of his voice, every Sunday evening with all the windows and doors open, you'd hear him from down the road. It was the countryside so no one minded.

    I've only recently been introduced to the voice of Dan Mc Cabe and I've not been disappointed,I grew up with Irish folk music,my Dad Paddy Mc Keown was self taught on the guitar and banjo and played in a few different bands and for a time could have passed for a Ronnie Drew look a like,Dan,I lost my Dad 13 years ago to pancreatic cancer and before he died he recorded a professional cd,Dan you along with my Dadhave helped me to keep my love of Irish music alive and for this I thank you xo

    Last night as I lay dreaming of pleasant days gone by
    Me mind being bent on rambling, to Ireland I did fly
    I stepped on board a vision, and I followed with a will
    'Til next I came to anchor at the cross at Spancil Hill
    It being on the 23rd of June, the day before the fair
    When Ireland's sons and daughters and friends assembled there
    The young, the old, the brave and the bold came, their duty to fulfill
    At the parish church in Clooney, a mile from Spancil Hill
    I went to see me neighbors, to see what they might say
    The old ones were all dead and gone, the young ones turning gray
    But I met the tailor Quigley, he's as bold as ever still
    Ah, he used to mend me britches when I lived in Spancil Hill
    I paid a flying visit to my first and only love
    She's as white as any lily, gentle as a dove
    And she threw her arms around me saying, "Johnny, I love you still"
    As she's Nell the farmer's daughter and the pride of Spancil Hill
    I dreamed I held and kissed her as in the days of yore
    Ah Johnny, you're only jokin', as many's the time before
    Then the cock, he crew in the morning, he crew both loud and shrill
    I awoke in California, many miles from Spancil Hill

    Hi Dan,
    I remember a gig of Luke Kelly.
    For what died the sons of Rosihin.
    They died for freedom.
    But Ireland is not free !
    It was not the time for Luke to do this.
    But You can do.
    Time has come.
    Greetings from Germany.
    Stefan

    This is actually very, very good. I dig the deep raspy voice. It sounds natural and not forced like a lot of singers. I learned a lot of "styles" on instruments from The Dubliners. Luke Kelly influenced me to learn 5 string banjo. Clawhammer style. Ronnie inspired the finger-picking from his expert Spanish guitar style, and Jim McCann. Barney McKenna influenced my tenor banjo(and mandolin) skills and style. I play fiddle, irish/tin/penny whistle, i learned to love hearing James Sheahan. All of these styles I have melded these into my own, and started doing well live until the coof. Stay strong
