<\/a>In honor of Frank, who started this weekly feature but is temporarily ashore, and while thinking of several friends from our parish who are in Ireland for the next couple of weeks, I thought I\u2019d share a few of my favorite Irish tunes and groups\u2014though the last song here is technically neither. No religious uplift is intended or expected; and the post will probably draw some loud boos. You\u2019ll know what I mean when you get there.

I\u2019ll start with a tune dedicated to my buddy Paul, whom I don\u2019t see half enough these days. A few months ago, I saw a concert by some boys from the Galway village of Tuam in Paul\u2019s company, and it was a happy night. First, the canned version\u2014<\/p>\n
