Ireland Drogheda Town Guitar Busker - Historic Irish Landscape Scenery
This is 19 year old local musician and media student Kalen Molloy, who plays his guitar around the town streets at weekends.
Taking in the magnificently maintained Norman fort at the top of the high street in Drogheda, Co Louth, and the area around Maiden Tower and East Lighthouse on the South bank estuary of the River Boyne just a couple of miles away. Beyond here is a large tidal beach with sand dunes facing the Irish Sea and long coastal views in each direction - very popular with local walkers, runners and fishermen. If you like watching ships and wildlife this is a great location. Therre is definitely a much more relaxed pace of life here compared to the busy city of Dublin, less than one hour's drive further South, yet it offers much town and country historic scenery within easy reach - Drogheda is one of Ireland's oldest settlements.

Guitar: The Old Turf Fire (Including lyrics and chords)
Back to the BBC programme Singing Together today for a short Irish song about which the footnote in the pamphlet of Spring 1976 read:
Roud 8215, one example only at present: Hughes, Irish Country Songs 4, 1936, 41-44. Probably the original source of this text, though the song was recorded by John McCormack and other lyric tenors and was no doubt published as sheet music on the strength of that.
The following comes from a site called Mainly Norfolk: English and Other Good Music:
Steeleye Span recorded this song for their album Horkstow Grange. It was later included in the Park Records sampler A Stroll Through the Park. Gay Woods commented in the original album's sleeve notes:
I used to hear this song when I was a child. “The hearth swept clean” - domestic bliss, my mother's pride and joy. I live near the boglands in the midlands of Ireland now and burn the stuff. There is a spirit and an art in the burning and storing of turf that warms and inspired:
“Confounds all reckoning by sun
Or star as turf-smoke drifts,
Blue bitterness at dusk, and cabins
Kneel in clusters to the dark.”
(Norman Dugdale, an Englishman who lived in Ireland for nearly 50 years)
The chords I am using for accompaniment are of my own devising.
