From Galway To Graceland - John Muldowney (Richard Thompson Cover)

[@ccooper8785]

Wow... It's not often that I hear someone covering a Richard Thompson song anywhere near as well as Mr Thompson. It would be great to hear you do Crazy Man Michael using one of these guitars.

A beautiful song John and on such a beautiful guitar. The more I hear these Emeralds, the more I want one.

This is truly beautiful. What a lovely voice you have and your finger picking is amazing

[@emeraldguitars]

Thanks for listening, beautiful playing and singing from John! It's great to show off the wealth of talent from around Donegal.

[@Sharon-cn6kx]

@@emeraldguitars such talent comes from Ireland...it's like a natural talent Irish people have and that's from me an English woman...although I do have 1% of Irish in my DNA 😂

Man I just love your voice and style. Is there a name for the strumming/ finger picking. I want to learn how to do it.

[@jjj1951]

Why do so many people covering this song change the lyric "she hummed Love Me Tender" to "she was humming Suspicion"? Glad you kept the original lyric.

[@GregoryJRyan]

I see you've asked this question on a few different versions of this song posted on KZbin. I agree with you. My "suspicion" is that Sean Keane first covered it and everybody else that's Irish copied that version. He changed a few other words and phrases, too, thus making it "his own," I guess. You are right: nobody does it better than Richard. But as a sort of singer myself, I can sympathize with the people who want to sing it. It's a great song.

[@gerardhaubert8210]

I believe it was originally Suspicion, and it was Richard Thompson changed it to Love Me Tender....goes better with the story

[@colrennie5936]

RT often changes the lyrics to songs. I have heard him sing this song many times live and have heard him sing both ways so i don't think there is any right or wrong. Real nice version this by the way.

[@davidbdavis]

Does John have a website or Facebook page? I would love to play him on my radio show. And what a beautiful guitar.
