Having the craic: Lisdoonvarna

from Racontour Archive - 2020 onwards Hosted by Racontour and friends

Artist: Christy Moore Album: Ride On Year: 1984 Notable fact: Written by songwriter Greg Stephen about a legendary matchmaking festival in the west of Ireland, the task of bringing it to life was left to Christy. He brought his trademark style and mischief to the song and it was released in 1979 to great acclaim. Says the great man about the song: ‘it’s like I’m back at the festival, surrounded by laughter, dancing, and the promise of love. It’s a song that never gets old’. Too true. https://www.racontour.com/tunes/
