A documentary made in 1975 by Éamon de Buitléir entitled “Miles and Miles of Music” followed the legendary “fear ildánach” Seamus Ennis around his homeland of Fingal, North County Dublin. I watched this video so often that I wore out the tape! The opening scene of the film has Seamus regaling the cameraman with this song, rounding it off with two glorious regulator honks on the car horn! I follow it up with Seamus’ three part version of The Rocky Road To Dublin, fitting as that was probably the road he was driving his big old Ford Zephyr on in the film.
