Seamus Creagh RIP

Seamus Creagh, highly influential fiddler, died yesterday. I saw him many a time in the Corner Bar in Skibbereen on Monday nights. I haven’t got a picture of my own – his place would be to the left of this picture, where the knees of a little boy can be seen.


Another era slips into the blue-grey twilight. May St Patrick himself come for his soul tomorrow!

It takes just over 10 minutes to go through the lot.
