An oldie... https://youtu.be/mTqTE7aNjZQ Sure. Lip Syncing no doubt. https://youtu.be/vOQGNzCq0l0 Old dude making it happen. They couldn't dream of lyrics like this today: There's a port on a western bayAnd it serves a hundred ships a dayLonely sailors pass the time awayAnd talk about their homesAnd there's a girl in this harbor townAnd she works layin' … Continue reading Sunday Music

Gonna be a Long Day…
It's raining today. Not the gully washer storms that happen in the spring and summer. The drizzle and rain of North Texas in the fall/winter. And I'm dealing with three big dogs that are mostly inside, when they'd be outside letting off steam.

She's a weird chick. But this is a compelling version of the song.

More Irish Music. I first saw Dervish at the Irish Festival in Gaithersburg Maryland. To say they are compelling is an understatement. I can watch Cathy Jordan sing all day long. https://youtu.be/7mdpci6qDe0 Red Haired Mary This one is great. A compelling story, a lesson easily translatable to today's times. For the life of me I … Continue reading Sunday Music

I knew an Irish guy that had a great T-Shirt. Said "I'm Irish and I don't give a shit where your grandmother was from". Something like that. Three our of four grandparents were from the old country. One whose family came over during the potato famine, the others at Irelands civil war in 1916. I … Continue reading Sunday Music

Dolores O'Riordan died suddenly, and too soon at age 47. She had an amazing, compelling voice. https://youtu.be/dszeCuSKxLg In a record store. Wow. https://youtu.be/0XEnvbTtR3s That kind of beautiful voice....man...it's dusty in here.
