Back to work in the morning...



"Fanny Power", written by O'Carolan and performed by The Chieftains, featuring here the late, great Derek Bell.

Hope you had a fine weekend.

I remember when Derek Bell died. the band left him behind (Colorado, I think) for medical treatment and he never played with them again.

I've seen the Chieftains several times over the years, and I recall Bell as a gifted musician and charmingly funny guy - a comedian on the piano and a magician with a harp. When he died, they lost more than just his talent.
