Good Stuff Kevin Beautiful piece. You probably knew my late wife "Olive Bayle" She recorded it at Mick's Place back in the late 60's

[@kevinkennedy-irish9573]

Indeed I met Olive many, many times. Great memories. Stay well.

Beautiful song Kevin and well done. Tells a very sad story that needs to be never forgotten. Hope we never go back that way again.

Great version ,,and great introduction but have to tell you that the baby didnt die ,shes still alive and living in a care home in Dublin ,Sean was my uncle and wrote this about his sister and his niece

[@kevinkennedy-irish9573]

My apologies for that mistake, I got the story second-hand. I never had the pleasure of meeting Sean but I met Mick many times in the Embankment and got to sing a few songs there. When I sang Parcel O' Rogues he gave me his tie!! My brother Ray Kennedy with Platform played Saturday nights there for many years.

@@kevinkennedy-irish9573 Kevin no need for apoligy,it was the story at the time ,but the truth is because her mother Peggy was not allowed in by the nuns she gave birth on the side of the road and as a cnnseqent the baby never got oxyegen she needed so she ended up mentaly challanged,I could tell you the complete story but I would be here till next week ,by the same token I remember your brother Ray well Iworked in the Embankment from the age of 14 ,Ray if I rememer correctly was a very quiet sort of aguy ,did he work in Dublin Airport

@@mickodonnell1446 Thanks for the information, perhaps you should consider, at least, a short story. I believe it's important for these things to finally see the light of day. Yes, Ray worked for Aer Lingus, first as a storeman and then, having gone to College and got a degree, he moved to the promotion and advertising as a graphic artist.

@@kevinkennedy-irish9573 Kevin it is well documented ,Conir Keane son of John Bs another Listowel man actually did a documentery on the story and it won the documentery of the year at the Barcelona awards which are the top awards for documentories ,you did such a good job on the song you should look it up

Kevin - Just discovered your KZbin channel and had a look after I subscribed. you are a wealth of knowledge on the music you sing and you have a fantastic selection of songs. I am commenting to you from Newfoundland, Canada. Irish music is very popular here and many of our people have their roots back in Ireland. I feel I am going to enjoy visiting your Channel... Thanks so much for sharing . DonBob P
