Pentimento: "We'll go no more a-roving"

My husband found this wonderful video of a 1980 performance of the folk song "The Jolly Beggar" by the Irish neo-folk band Planxty. Enjoy!

Anonymous said...: I landed here after reading Maclin's meme thread. I love Planxty - one of my favourite groups. I can't play it right now because I shooed my colleague out of the office saying I had a headache (I do).

I hope your headache is gone, Francesca. I love Planxty too - they seem to me, like the Beatles, to have been greater than the sum of their parts. . .; July 15, 2008 at 11:46 PM
