      I think this is the only time I saw him without a cigarette in his mouth. He smoked while playing and held it when singing. It killed him. Rest in peace Swarbick. We’re still listening to your beautiful music.

    When Swarb was a kid, he wanted to learn guitar. One of his teachers told him that everyone was playing guitars and that he should learn the fiddle. A legend was born.

      The second tune goes by at least two titles - The Top Of The Cork Road and Father O'Flynn. Dave used to play it, among other tunes, for the Jug O'Punch Rapper Sword Team, of which I was a member.

    • @andrewwigglesworth3030
      @andrewwigglesworth3030 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@grahamspencer6521 Nope, the second tune is definitively Shandon Bells. I think you were taken in by the A part having some very broad similarities with the tune you mentioned.
      The third tune is an English/Scottish borders tune called "The high road to Linton."
      PS. "Father O'Flynn" (which wasn't played here) is an English country dance tune called "Yorkshire Lasses", dating from the 18th century. The name "Father O'Flynn" comes from a song set to the tune in the 1870s. It's also a Morris tune called "Bonny Green Garters."
