Hello, how are you getting on? So there you were, innocently scrolling along and you got sidestepped by a man with the banjo. I'm going to attempt to sing a song with a banjo, and it's not just any banjo, it belonged to a friend of mine who passed away earlier in the year. So I'd like to sing this song for my friend Aidran's family and for anyone who is finding this period of their lives very difficult. I hope you enjoy this.
The Dubliners recorded Mrs McGrath on the 1965 EP "In Person Featuring Ronnie Drew". In 1968 they sung it to new lyrics, though keeping the tune of the original folk song, in the album "Drinkin' and Courtin"'. This latter version tells the story of a country boy who goes to college in Dublin but fails due to spending all his money and time on "women and drink
"Mrs. McGrath" (also known as "Mrs. McGraw", "My Son Ted", "My Son John", and "The Sergeant and Mrs. McGrath") is an Irish folk song set during the Peninsular War of the early 19th century. The song tells the story of a woman whose son enters the British Army and returns seven years later having lost his legs to a cannonball while fighting against Napoleon presumably at the Battle of Fuentes de Oñoro (fought between 3 and 5 May 1811). The general theme of the song is one of opposition to war. Along with "Johnny I Hardly Knew Ye", it is one of the most graphic of all Irish folk songs that deal with sickness and injuries caused by warfare.[1] Irish folk song collector Colm Ó Lochlainn described "Mrs. Grath" as "known to every true born citizen of Dublin". It was very popular among the Irish Volunteers in the years leading up to the 1916 Rising[2] and has been recorded by many singers and folk groups."

My Yaysus, that was a grey day.
It wasn't all bad, though, it got some nice sun towards the end and I had a nice walk in the park... so I decided to do this little midweek tea-time tune. It's called "Johnson's Motor Car". Now, I've taken a liberty with a word here and there.................
if you don't like it you can't stick it up your jumper!
"Johnston's Motor Car is an Irish rebel song written by Willie Gillespie, a poet from Ballybofey, shortly after the event.
It is based on the commandeering in Ulster of a motor car belonging to Doctor Henry Maturin Johnston (1851-1932) by the Irish Republican Army. The event took place in April 1921. An Irish Republican Army unit needed transport to a town over fifty miles away, but had no car to carry them. They decided to call out Henry M. Johnston, a doctor based in Stranorlar, and then ambush him and his car at a bridge and commandeer the car for the IRA. Johnston was sent a telegraph asking him to attend to a Mrs. Boyle. On his way there, he found the Reelin Bridge in Glenfin barricaded by the IRA, who forced him to give them his car. On June 7, 2019 the remnants of the legendary car are believed to have been uncovered under a turf stack in County Donegal by Retired Ballybofey businessman Cathal McHugh."

if you don't like it you can't stick it up your jumper!
"Johnston's Motor Car is an Irish rebel song written by Willie Gillespie, a poet from Ballybofey, shortly after the event.
It is based on the commandeering in Ulster of a motor car belonging to Doctor Henry Maturin Johnston (1851-1932) by the Irish Republican Army. The event took place in April 1921. An Irish Republican Army unit needed transport to a town over fifty miles away, but had no car to carry them. They decided to call out Henry M. Johnston, a doctor based in Stranorlar, and then ambush him and his car at a bridge and commandeer the car for the IRA. Johnston was sent a telegraph asking him to attend to a Mrs. Boyle. On his way there, he found the Reelin Bridge in Glenfin barricaded by the IRA, who forced him to give them his car. On June 7, 2019 the remnants of the legendary car are believed to have been uncovered under a turf stack in County Donegal by Retired Ballybofey businessman Cathal McHugh."

Today as part of our Blooms Week celebrations, ICC Digital brings you a special treat - a rousing rendition from Phelim Drew, of ‘Finnegan’s Wake’, sang with the same gusto as his late father Ronnie, when he sang it with The Dubliners.
A great friend of the ICC, many of you will have seen Phelim at the venue when he recently performed his one man show ‘Joxer Daly’ and also when he appeared with his own band The Phelim Drew Band in 2019.
Phelim is currently regarded as one of Ireland’s great actors. He trained at The Gaiety School of Acting under the direction of Joe Dowling. His theatre performances includes ‘Joxer Daly Esq’ (Bewleys Cafe Theatre and tour); ‘The Plough and The Stars’ (Abbey Theatre production at The Lyric Hammersmith and The Gaiety); ‘Once’ (Dublin and South Korea); ‘The Kings of the Kilburn High Road’ (Livin Dred); ‘Down and Out in Paris and London’ (Fishamble/ITI/Tiger Dublin Fringe).
He has appeared in numerous productions at The Abbey Theatre including ‘The Risen People’, ‘King Lear’, ‘Drumbelly’ and ‘The Curse of the Starving Class’. He has also worked at The Gate Theatre, The Almeida (London), The Lyceum (Edinburgh) and with Druid, Rough Magic, Decadent, Siren and The Focus. His Film and T.V. appearances include: ‘Striking Out’, ‘Drummer & The Keeper’, ‘Clean Break’, ‘Ripper Street’, ‘Angela's Ashes’; ‘The Commitments’ and ‘My Left Foot’.

Hello, how are you getting on? So there you were, innocently scrolling along and you got sidestepped by a man with the banjo. I'm going to attempt to sing a song with a banjo, and it's not just any banjo, it belonged to a friend of mine who passed away earlier in the year. So I'd like to sing this song for my friend Aidran's family and for anyone who is finding this period of their lives very difficult. I hope you enjoy this.
The Dubliners recorded Mrs McGrath on the 1965 EP "In Person Featuring Ronnie Drew". In 1968 they sung it to new lyrics, though keeping the tune of the original folk song, in the album "Drinkin' and Courtin"'. This latter version tells the story of a country boy who goes to college in Dublin but fails due to spending all his money and time on "women and drink
"Mrs. McGrath" (also known as "Mrs. McGraw", "My Son Ted", "My Son John", and "The Sergeant and Mrs. McGrath") is an Irish folk song set during the Peninsular War of the early 19th century. The song tells the story of a woman whose son enters the British Army and returns seven years later having lost his legs to a cannonball while fighting against Napoleon presumably at the Battle of Fuentes de Oñoro (fought between 3 and 5 May 1811). The general theme of the song is one of opposition to war. Along with "Johnny I Hardly Knew Ye", it is one of the most graphic of all Irish folk songs that deal with sickness and injuries caused by warfare.[1] Irish folk song collector Colm Ó Lochlainn described "Mrs. Grath" as "known to every true born citizen of Dublin". It was very popular among the Irish Volunteers in the years leading up to the 1916 Rising[2] and has been recorded by many singers and folk groups."

My Yaysus, that was a grey day.
It wasn't all bad, though, it got some nice sun towards the end and I had a nice walk in the park... so I decided to do this little midweek tea-time tune. It's called "Johnson's Motor Car". Now, I've taken a liberty with a word here and there.................
if you don't like it you can't stick it up your jumper!
"Johnston's Motor Car is an Irish rebel song written by Willie Gillespie, a poet from Ballybofey, shortly after the event.
It is based on the commandeering in Ulster of a motor car belonging to Doctor Henry Maturin Johnston (1851-1932) by the Irish Republican Army. The event took place in April 1921. An Irish Republican Army unit needed transport to a town over fifty miles away, but had no car to carry them. They decided to call out Henry M. Johnston, a doctor based in Stranorlar, and then ambush him and his car at a bridge and commandeer the car for the IRA. Johnston was sent a telegraph asking him to attend to a Mrs. Boyle. On his way there, he found the Reelin Bridge in Glenfin barricaded by the IRA, who forced him to give them his car. On June 7, 2019 the remnants of the legendary car are believed to have been uncovered under a turf stack in County Donegal by Retired Ballybofey businessman Cathal McHugh."

On Sunday 20/03/2020 I recorded this tune, The Newry Highwayman, after mastering the banjo. I called it "Sunday Settler".
I'd like to dedicate it to Sean Cannon and his sons Jamie and Robbie. I always loved hearing Sean sing this song, so I hope he approves.
I also want to dedicate it to my friends in Newry.
