When the English & the Irish wanted to rediscover their folk music they came to the Appalachians where it was still being song. See the movie "The Song Catcher".
ReplyDeleteI am sure that Mr. Delahunt is very good, but you can hear good Irish music on any ridge top on any evening, played the way it was meant to be played. West Virginia was settled, for the most part, by the Irish. So, when you're talking about 'stupid hillbillies' you're talking about the descendents of the Irish settlers. I bet Mr. Delahunt knows this.
Well said Byron, Eddie is a great musician.
