[@jamesr.epstein]

thank you Peter. From the bottom of my heart those words bring me back way back. I'm 80. I could sing it right along with you. keep up the great work. Love it.

[@ethericrose2307]

My partner and I would listen and sing your dads version full blast on our way to the coast. It was so much fun. Bless you for this song.

[@Buzzer365]

Fantastic performance, excellent sound and video recording too.

[@oldhippypeace]

Carrying on a tradition, thank you Peter. Chip off the old block, effing good

[@AJTW11]

loved it you and your dad are the best

[@fillra]

This is brilliant! Peter, you are a star! Very good band, too. More more more!!! Some years ago I saw Lonnie D and his band a couple of times. This band is as good, if not better.

[@ctyarchuletta1541]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@MrAIOK]

Great version and I think the violin adds a lot.

[@andreagdevine]

+Alan O'Kelly Fiddle. :)

[@MrAIOK]

Same instrument just different music.

[@dynomax666]

Every cover of this song is different, and I like them all. I think Johnny Cash did a real good one.

[@whitleybayman123]

Hey Mr B, This is a great performance mate. I just noticed your face on bass, nice work. I need to get in touch with Peter as I am looking to book him for a show at the Park i am at in East lothian. Are you still in touch

[@wateroftyne]

Look it up! If you're still stuck, ask Nodz :-D

[@whitleybayman123]

Aye I've got him on Fb too, but hes not answered. We would need him pretty soon if hes available. Are you still playing mate?

[@whitleybayman123]

i went to School with the Bass player.

[@wateroftyne]

...and the guitarist. Hello Mr. C... how are you? Michael

[@musicalheat]

I knew a peter donelan from Ireland. I was wondering if this was the same peter. this is gary forney!

[@craigclash1984]

No this is Peter the son of Lonnie Donegan, i knew Peter Donegan from Ireland as i sold him some Irish Country Backing Tracks that i did :-)

[@colinlyne7399]

Excellent, maybe better than dad's!!!

[@wateroftyne]

I am! He's on my friends list on FB. Drop him a line through there. You'll need to get a wriggle on though - I think he's emigrating soon.

[@wateroftyne]

That will have been 'The Lonnie Donegan Band Featuring Peter Donegan'. A very good band, but - apart from Peter - a completely different lineup to the band in this clip.

[@oldhippypeace]

Oh by the way your dad inspired me my mates in dads shed to make horrid row in the shed with me on tea case bass

[@lunacybanduk]

Hi you are playing at newtown soon.If you want to know how we play your old mans music down the pub check out Lunacy at Newtown.Its ok I dont Know the words and I cant sing

[@mariobucci7683]

Peter your voice is way better than your dad's voice. Seriously your voice has soul.

[@wateroftyne]

@wowmasterAJ - read before you post. :-)

[@perthcampsie]

not as good as his Dad

[@urasam2]

Davie McGregor what a pointless comment
