    This is relatable. Whatever culture, remembering dear mothers cooking and longing for a distant, simpler time.
    Happy St. Patrick's Day!

    Their voicing is amazing and Mary's lead is crystal clear but the most amazing thing about this is the cathedral/church-like hall reverb that's on this naturally. The room/stage they're are on was made for recordings like this and it's a perfect setting.

    I love this song...great version. I can remember clearly the very first time I heard it was from the singing of the great piper Séamus Ennis at a Fleadh Cheoil Concert in Kilrush in 1963.

    I play this CD in my car for California boys that I'm driving to an afterschool program. They have no idea what Colcannonis, but the LOVE the song and ask me to repeat it so they can learn the words.

    A song that reminds me of a Fleadh Cheoil Concert in Kilrush, County Clare in the early 60's. I was with my late Mum and Séamus Ennis Uilleann Piper was the guest artist..He stopped playing the pipes at one stage and sang this ballad. It was the very first time I heard the song...Go hálainn ar fad.

      Remembering a simpler time with Nostalgia and your mother's home cooking is trivial? Good memories are what keep your spirits up and make a full life.
