Had the good fortune to attend a Johnny McEvoy concert in Sligo on Sunday night. Have seen him a few times through the years and have many of his song numbered among my favourites. Didn’t know til last night that the first song he wrote “Long Long Before Your Time” was penned outside Kennedy’s in Doocastle! Always enjoy hearing the story of a song. I like this one too – the story of his love for his late wife, Odette, R.I.P. “The Planter’s Daughter”
A few thoughts
Beautiful so sad that his wife passed away may she rest in peace , the lyrics are lovely you can almost see them together on Grafton Street when they met. Kind Regards Kathy.
