Accordion Player Pat Posted on March 17, 2021 by pwalterMarch 17, 2021

You can’t celebrate St. Patrick’s Day without singing When Irish Eyes are Smiling. I hope you sing along and feel a bit Irish, at least for the day.… Read the rest

Mother Machree

Accordion Player Pat Posted on March 17, 2021 by pwalterMarch 17, 2021

This is another beautiful song about Mother Machree. It talks about how much she is loved and cherished. I was looking for graphics and could not find a good Mother Machree, so I used my 96 year old Mom’s photo since I feel the same about her. Especially when I think about her since she passed away 3 years ago. The Irish seemed to write many songs about their homeland and their “Mothers”. This is just a beautiful song to me. I hope you enjoy it.… Read the rest

Harrigan & Mary’s A Grand Old Name

Accordion Player Pat Posted on March 17, 2021 by pwalterMarch 17, 2021

Harrigan and Mary’s a Grand Old Name. Continuing on my Irish Journey featuring many of the songs I love to play. Great songs known and sung by most older Americans. “Harrigan” is a song written by George M. Cohan for the short-lived 1908 Broadway musical Fifty Miles from Boston. It was also performed by James Cagney and Joan Leslie in the 1942 film Yankee Doodle Dandy. Mary’s A Grand Old Name also was in the 1908 musical Fifty Miles From Boston. Sing along. I hope you enjoy my little bit of Irish.… Read the rest

Molly Malone or Cockles and Mussels

Accordion Player Pat Posted on March 13, 2021 by pwalterMarch 13, 2021

Always a great sing along. I was playing Irish music this morning and after I played this, I went to turn the page to the next song – Old Molly jumped right in my face and said “I am a well known lady and you should make a video about me”. LOL Since it was international woman’s day earlier, I said OK. So I hope you enjoy this old sing along. It was fun to play. No exact date or composer, but there was a copy of Apollo’s Medley, dating from around 1790, published in Doncaster.… Read the rest

Danny Boy

Accordion Player Pat Posted on March 13, 2021 by pwalterMarch 13, 2021

Danny Boy. Never could get through live performances without a few request for me to sing Danny Boy. Never an easy song to sing unless you are an Irish Tenor. Several of my personal friends recently asked if I was going to sing Danny Boy? So here is Danny Boy. Mr. Roland suggest I use the pretty chorus to back me up because they are definitely great singers. LOL This was adapted from an Old Irish Air by Fred E. Weatherly. I hope you enjoy this beautiful song and and sing along as most people like to do.… Read the rest

The Maids of Glenroe and The Wheels of the World

Accordion Player Pat Posted on March 13, 2021 by pwalterMarch 13, 2021

The Maids of Glenroe and The Wheels of the World. A couple traditional Irish Jigs. Great fun to play. Probably not a very Irish rendition, but I stayed with the notes on the page. I like to play these jigs. Just fun. Many, many notes and sometimes old American fingers forget what they are supposed to do.… Read the rest

Blame It On The Bossa Nova

Accordion Player Pat Posted on March 13, 2021 by pwalterMarch 13, 2021

Fun song to play. Today is International Woman’s Day so Mr. Dino thought we could celebrate by getting our dance on! He’s a great partner. This was written by a husband and wife team Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann in 1963. It was first recorded by Eydie Gorme.… Read the rest

TOO-RA-LOO-RA-LOO-RAL

Accordion Player Pat Posted on March 8, 2021 by pwalterMarch 8, 2021

Did Your Mother Come From Ireland

Accordion Player Pat Posted on March 8, 2021 by pwalterMarch 8, 2021

I always loved this song. My Mom’s parents came from Czechoslovakia, but my Mom’s hair was red and everyone thought she was Irish! LOL My great, great Grandfather came from Ireland, so maybe that bit of Irish is in my blood. This was written in 1941 by Kennedy & Carr. Another American, Irish song. I hope you enjoy this touch of Ireland.… Read the rest

Galway Bay

Accordion Player Pat Posted on March 2, 2021 by pwalterMarch 8, 2021

March 1st – time for Irish Music. I love to play Irish music – although most of what I play is American Irish music, not traditional original Irish music. Back in the day, we always played at our local pub/bar/lounge for St. Patrick’s Day. Always great fun – always large crowds. I like the fast songs and play a lot of them, but I like the tear jerkers and “Mother Songs” Can’t believe how may Mother songs are in my books. Guess the immigrants really missed their Ireland and their Mothers and families. Galway Bay is always a favorite of mine. I hope you like my kick off to Irish Month. Galway Bay was written by Arthur Colahan in Leicester in 1947.… Read the rest
