Streets of Derry - Maria Ryan and Ger O Donnell

The Streets of Derry - @Maria Ryan and Ger O Donnell
An incredible song from the collection of Sam Henry
It tells the story of a young gentleman who fell in love with a rich lady but her parents did not consent to their marriage and had him condemned to be hanged. But she defied her parents, obtained a pardon from the Queen and married him in the end.
Hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed playing!

I cannot believe my ears. Divine

One of my favorite songs. Class

[@ericjacksonheights]

I first heard this song about sixty years ago, so beautifully sung by Shirley Collins, accompanied by her sister Dolly on the portative organ. It is such a perfect blend of lyric and melody; almost never fails to bring tears to my eyes. What a rare and flawless voice Maria has, and filled with emotion. Ger is perfect in accompaniment. Just sublime.

what a coincidence I'm still awake and am ablet to witness this piece of art before going to bed.
This version is so pure and clean. Full of emotions. As good as Cara's and Paul's Version, maybe better
