The Harmonies in this song are tightly woven and well sung. Jack Burke is the music director and was able to fit five harmonies together. This song has 4, since Rich McKay was unable to join us the day we recorded.

Four Green Fields
Tommy Makem wrote this magnificent song about the troubles in Ireland, now, in 2008, largely behind us. Tommy died a few months back and I put the song I’d sung in 1989 together with some slides. Its sung by Bob Johnson, who also played Guitar.
This song is also posted on YouTube with a 5 star rating and over 4200 hits.
