| 1n 1998, Jerry released his first complete album, The Dimming of the Day which was a collection of classic ballads and story songs from the Celtic tradition. This eclectic album features traditional Irish songs like My Lagan Love and a Mark Knopfler song, Done with Bonaparte. I Hear You Calling Me and
Hard
Times Come Again no More are also included. To
date this album has sold 25,000 units and continues to receive radio play in Ireland, the UK, Australia and Germany. This is due mainly to the popularity of “ A Silent Night Christmas 1915 ”, a really moving song about The Christmas Truce in WW 1. It was written by Cormac McConnell from Enniskillen. His brother Mickey wrote Only Our Rivers Run Free and his other brother Cathal plays
with The Boys of The Lough. Jerry has fine musicians playing on the album e. g Liam Lewis, Josephine Marsh, Paul O’Driscoll, Danny Byrt, Padraig O’Broin, Declan Corey, Claire Keville, Jim Kerrigan and Michel Bonamy. The album was produced by P. J Curtis, a cousin of Jerry’s who has produced albums for Stockton’s Wing, Maura O’Connell, Francis and Mary Black, Altan, Davy Spillane and many more. |
