I've met John several times. He told me that he doesn't do THE OLD DUNN COW because people were destroying the pub's property.

Scottish and Irish? The song was written by Harry Wincott (1867-1947) in 1893 for English music Hall.

Beautifully done John. I’ve always loved this song, I think your performance of it is the best I’ve seen.

This isn't (as stated) an Irish song. It was written by a Londoner, a music hall performer, called Harry Wincott who also wrote "Boiled Beef 'n' Carrots", "Any Old Iron?" and the WW1 classic "Mademoiselle from Armentieres".

[@seantodd8875]

He never stated it was an Irish song. He said it was a song about Irishmen, which he has every right to say as a singer with artistic liberty.

Benjamin Franklin once sniffed that he "had no use for a man with but one spelling for a word."
