"A National Treasure ..."

Charlie McGettigan refers to Limerick singer/songwriter Johnny Duhan as a "National Treasure". I agree! Johnny played just once in the good old Moving Stairs here in Boyle. His quietly delivered, thought provoking songs will remain an inspirational memory. Johnny was lead singer with the excellent "Granny's Intentions" band. His songs have been re-recorded by luminaries like Christy Moore & Mary Black ("The Voyage") and The Dubliners ("Don't Give Up Till It's Over"). Johnny's "A Winter's Night" is a beauty. Check it out on Youtube [here...]
• Oh My God, I thank you for the beauty of Music, for the Human Voice and for the Thought Process You have enabled within us ... listen and enjoy Johnny Duhan.
