    Great piece of history recorded here though. Tommy Maken still banging out the great songs and energy and entertaining to many.
    He should have a statue erected of him in Armagh.

    Wish that I was there. What a voice he had. Too bad Miller never made a Porter or Stout!

      @@rorymakem4043 Rory,pay no attention. How many of these "critics" would have the guts to do what you and I have done and that is to get up there and sing and play the songs and music o the Irish people! Thank you for what you do!
