Your Favourite Singer

[Norman Verona]

Eric Bogle. Good.

Eric Bogle: 'Now I'm Easy' gives me a huge lump in the throat. I've seen him a couple of times on stage in Nettlebed, Oxon. He doesn't tour here now though...

Green Fields of France can bring more than a lump to my throat. A friend of mine who runs Fagans in Sheffiled, once sang it A Capella at the end of that charity do with the jazz band and Capstick.

Tom is a big man of Irish ancestry. He has a powerful voice.

There wasn't a dry eye in the house.

Yes it is very moving - I marginally prefer Finbar Furey singing it although it's Bogle's work. Furey's voice is so rich and poignant.
