Hmmm, never heard about that before Phil, cheers. I guess the plot thickens so, even more mysterious.If, as you say, we take Behan at his word then most likely it was just somebody he knew who sang him the song. Can't think where the Dominic idea came from then though. Unless of course Brendan was referring to Dominic, taking the piss out of him like. Which would be about right, knowing the pair of them.
While on the Behan's, am I right in saying Peadar Kearney , who wrote the words to Amhrann na Bhiann, was an uncle or cousin of theirs ? Some relation anyway ?
