Recommended Posts

There was a discussion "awhile" back about this book. ...Irish policeman? ...and his detective wrote down the music for him?? did they both play concertina?? I've searched and searched but cannot find that topic. What was the name of that book (and even the author) ??? Thanks you guys! Michelle

You may be thinking of Chief of police Francis O'Neill who collected Irish music, James O'Neill wrote down the music for him. Neither of them played the concertina however, nor is the concertina ever mentioned in their works.

 

Various books/biographies have been written about the Chief and one, The Scribe, about James O'Neill.
