    Brian O'Donavan announced at his Celtic Music show Sunday that his

    --Next sunday being 12-FEB-1995.--
    Brian's sunday Celtic Music show is from 12:00-2:00PM
    I believe the station is WGBH, Boston  FM Radio.     89.3FM ?
    Low end of the FM dial.

    It's 89.7 FM and that's ALWAYS a great show.

    Regarding this show - I stumbled onto it a week or two before Christmas
    to hear the reading of a great poem. I was driving at the time but
    pulled over to write anything I could abou the poem to try to track it
    down. The only information I got was the names Mary Hynes and Lamm
    Clancey. I tried calling the station but got no real help there, (about
    two weeks ago they sent the play list but it was for another week). I
    have been to libraries and even tried my inexperienced hand at using
    the Internet to try to find the name of the poem or a source for the
    record. No luck - but - it was fun to see I could get into the
    University of Dublin library.
    
    Anyway, does anyone know of the poem, or a person who may be an expert
    in this sort of literature who may help me run this down.
    
    Thanks,

    Why not ask WGBH to give you Brian Donovans phone number and call him
    direct.  I think he works at Foxboro Stadium (runs it or something like
    that).

1452.5Isn't WGBH on line yet?RANGER::HORGANCraicailte indiadh damhsaThu Feb 16 1995 17:215
    Was Liam Clancy the person who recited it?  I have heard them
    (The Clancy Brothers) read poetry and once the beginning of Ulysses
    as the opening to a song.  Liam had a great voice for recitation.

1452.6Thanks for the help!ICS::LOCHRIEMon Feb 27 1995 08:474
    Thanks for the responses. I will look into the possibility of it having
    been Liam Clancy of the Clancy Brothers as suggested.
    
    Thanks again, the responses are of great value.
