FTX-178-THE FAIRY BOY

JOHN CORRY of Co Tyrone

 

 

John Corry (born 1926), from Castlederg, claims to store in his head over 4,000 songs - he talks about the markets and hiring fairs, country dances, tells the story of "Supple Corrigan" and recites "Paddy from Rosslea". John was recorded by James Foley for Folktrax in 1985.
