The Craic

A group of mainly Warrnambool musicians with a guest or two from Melbourne. They were brilliant. The box player had a very strong country Irish accent and I went up to him afterwards to enquire. He was in fact from Melbourne but had only moved there in 1959! His accent was Scarrif in Co. Clare where he had left as a teenager to find work, as he put it. Paddy Fitzgerald was his name.
