 | 458. Planxty Fanny Power / Ballad of Glencoe "Planxty Fanny Power" is a popular tune by Turlough O'Carolan. Toirdhealbhach Ó Cearbhalláin (1670 - 1738) was an itinerant Irish harper. He was blinded by smallpox at about the age of eighteen and learnt to play the harp rather than continue his formal education. He became one of Ireland's most important composers, and his tunes form an important part of the traditional Irish repertoire. The Power family was indeed a power in society, and, being rich and famous, very attractive to O'Carolan, who performed in the great houses and castles of Ireland. He often wrote planxties to honour them, in particular the ladies of the family. (The word "planxty" is apparently a corruption of "Slainte!", Gaelic for "Good Health!") Jim McLean wrote the words and melody of the Scottish song, "Ballad of Glencoe" in 1963. It is not a traditional song as is often assumed. The song is about the attempted genocide of the Maclans, a branch of the Clan Donald, by government soldiers in 1692, led by Captain Robert Campbell of Glengoyn, despite the Highland hospitality earlier provided by the Maclans. But you won't hear those words here anyway, just the tune, scraped out on my fiddle, preceded by my attempt at "Fanny Power". |

 | The Fields Of Athenry I recorded this while being paced by Noteworthy Composer since the timing is difficult and crucial. I used a Burke D whistle. To get the correct key of F one should use a C whistle with the same fingering. It is a beautiful tune and worth the effort to play it |

A Fifties child, his early heroes were Jerry Lee Lewis, Winifred Atwell and Fats Domino. After living in London and New York City in the early 70s Paul returned to Dublin to join Planxty, the premier Irish folk band of the time. This was the band that was to launch the solo careers of Andy Irvine, Liam O' Flynn, Donal Lunny and Christy Moore. After an acclaimed solo folk album "Welcome Here Kind Stranger" (1978) which won the Melody maker Folk Album of the year, he released "Hard Station" in 1981 which was an original reworking of his earlier influences. The albums which followed established Paul as the pre-eminent Irish singer-songwriter of his generation. In 2001, Paul released 'The Missing Liberty Tapes' featuring a lost live recording of a Paul Brady concert in Dublin in 1978. The classic record also features Andy Irvine, Donal Lunny, Liam O'Flynn, Matt Molloy, Paddy Glackin and Noel Hill.

With these plumbing videos you will be impressed and happy to know the knowledge is just an arm's reach away. Pick up any one of the videos; toilet, bath, sink, tub and shower, kitchen sink, hot water heater and the sump pump. The list goes on. Every video has been created by a licensed plumber with over 25 years experience in plumbing repairs services. You will be watching a real plumber doing service, not someone that can just talk the talk, but can walk the walk. There are no plumbing videos out there like these. It took years to develop these videos. We know there is a need out there for these plumbing repair videos. After years of plumbing service, we have come across many people who could really not afford a plumber and went years without plumbing services, even to the point that they would have to move from their home or pay thousands of dollars for plumbing repairs. If only these people had this knowledge, they could and would have saved their home and their money. We know you are out there. We have come to save the day. Everyone does not have $90 to $200 to have a plumber come out just to tell them what the problem is and what it will cost to fix. We are not trying to put plumbers out of work. We are just trying to keep you out of the red. There will still be times when you may need a plumber, but wouldn't you feel good understanding what the plumber is doing and what you are getting for your money. You know that you are not going to be cheated because you have a better understanding of the problem and how it can be fixed. |
