Dolores Keane and Paul Brady - 'Paddy's Green Shamrock Shore’ RTÉ 1988
Fond Memories of our Galway Girl Dolores Keane ❤Dolores Keane is joined by Paul Brady to perform the classic Irish song 'Paddy's Green Shamrock Shore', originally broadcast on RTÉ in 1988.Lyrics:From Derry quay we sailed away On the twenty-third of May We were taken on board by a pleasant crew Bound for Amerikay Fresh water then we did take on Five thousand gallons or more In case we'd run short going to New York Far away from the shamrock shoreThen fare thee well, sweet Liza dear And likewise unto Derry town And twice farewell to my comrades brave That dwell on that sainted ground If fame or fortune shall favour me And I to have money in store I'll go back and I'll wed the wee lassie I left On Paddy's green shamrock shoreWe sailed three days, we were all seasick Not a man on board was free We were all confined unto our bunks And no-one to pity poor me No father kind nor mother dear To lift up my head, it was sore Which made me think more on the lassie I left On Paddy's green shamrock shoreWe safely reached the other side After fifteen and twenty days We were taken as passengers by a man And led round in six different ways Then each of us drank a parting glass In case we'd meet no more And we drank a health to old Ireland And Paddy's green shamrock shoreThen fare thee well, sweet Liza dear And likewise unto Derry town And twice farewell to my comrades brave That dwell on that sainted ground If fame or fortune shall favour me And I to have money in store I'll go back and I'll wed the wee lassie I left On Paddy's green shamrock shore

Albert Lee - “Sweet Little Lisa” [Telecaster Group]
ALBERT LEE “Sweet Little Lisa”
"For those younger players who think Mr. Albert Lee only plays Music Man guitars, here’s proof that he doesn’t!This clip comes from his instructional video « Virtuoso Techniques », the third volume in the series, where he breaks down his playing style, including his famous “Country Boy.”Here he’s playing “Sweet Little Lisa”, the song for which he recorded the guitar parts on Dave Edmunds’ album (I’ve already posted that video in this group, so I highly recommend digging it up). He’s demonstrating the B-Bender system on his three-pickup Telecaster.The solo goes over just three chords, and you get the feeling Albert could keep improvising like this for hours. Double-stops, bends, triplets… it’s all there.I’ll post the instructional package this clip comes from in the first comment. I owned a copy many years ago, and it really helped me work seriously on hybrid picking, especially all those banjo rolls. He covers a ton of examples. It came with a book, an audio CD, and even a VHS tape !" Telecaster Group
