Product Details


Product Description

This is the second-to-last song composed in 1738 by the greatest composer of music for the Celtic harp: Turlough O'Carolan.  
The story goes that when Turlough was quite old he went to his doctor, who told him that if he didn't give up the whiskey he couldn't be assured of seeing another year. 
So Turlough did what any sane man would do: he got a second opinion.  
He consulted Dr. John Stafford who wrote him a prescription (in those days it was called a "receipt") for whiskey, and it return O'Carolan wrote this.
