Having heartbreak: Raglan Road

from Racontour Archive - 2020 onwards Hosted by Racontour and friends

Artist: Luke Kelly/The Dubliners Album: Hometown! Year: 1972 Notable fact: Patrick Kavanagh’s ghost looms large in this song based on the old melody The Dawning of the Day. The definitive version most know actually comes from the 1983 Prodigal Sons sessions, but we’re right to kick this off as the first tune as its genesis are in the late 60s when Kavanagh met Kelly in The Bailey as the video tells us. https://www.racontour.com/tunes/
