A Folk Song About A Lark In The Morning.

I was looking on good old You Tube the other day for An Irish folk duo I saw in Killarney in July.  They supported the Hothouse Flowers.  The duo are called: The Vagabonds.  

I have an eclectic music taste and I have always liked folk music especially when its live.  They sang a wonderful old English folk song called 'The Lark In The Morning'.  Its been sung by the Dubliners, Steely Dan and many others.  

The song was was first printed in 1778,  Any way I found the Vagabonds singing this song in a cave the other day.  I think the cave must make wonderful natural acoustics.  Enjoy.

  2. Hi LA. It is an interesting place to play. Thin Lizzy are another classic Irish band for me. I am not keen on Country and Irish (Western) though. Thanks!

  5. I enjoyed that. I depend on You Tube to listen to my favourite Irish traditional band, the Bothy Band.
