I am interested in knowing what songs are in this book (here's more info)

The Wind that Shakes the Barley and Other Irish Pub Songs
author: James, Gareth
Publ: Belfast: Appletree Press (1983)

If anyone has it (or has access to it), would you be so kind as to list the contents? (Or at least let me know if the song "Donegal Danny" is included.)

I located the book on an online "out-of-print" Book source search and am interested in potentially purchasing it....

Thanks for the help!

Mary

Mary, I'm certain that both the lyrics and tune have been posted here to Donegal Danny. Let's know if you have trouble finding it. Regards, John

I did find lyrics here and in various other sites...want to obtain the actual music for myself (and also to confirm chords--one version of which was included in a previous thread)...

Mary

Anyone know of a book (current or out-of-print) that contains the music??
