Aidan O'Hara Collection. Reel-to-Reel 96 [sound recording] / [various performers]. Track 2

Speech [Talk about learning songs off records, people selling ballad sheets; Jimmy talks about his love of Gilbert and Sullivan songs which he learned from a recording of the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company; he saw ballad song sellers at markets and fairs in Carndonagh the last thirty years ago; tinkers, men and women sold the songs which they had printed up, songs by Thomas Moore and the like. Sheets would be three pence or four pence each; how they know what air to sing the song to; He showed me a song called 'The Bonnie Wee Lass o' the Glen', written out for him 30 or 40 years earlier by a man from Balleighan, Malin, his name, John White Paddy, a Doherty or a McLaughlin man. Jimmy said the man had a lovely voice and he liked the song; talks about the 'timbre' in a good singer's voice. "I haven't that," he said.' (description provided by AOH)] / Jimmy Clingan, speech in English ; Aidan O’Hara, speech in English]
