Luke would have been 80 today. I was never a musician but had been a Liverpool fan for a while, and after hearing and liking the Virgil van Dijk song I wanted to hear the original. Found this version, liked it so much that I got hooked on the Dubliners and started playing music myself. Too bad I'm about 40 years late because I would have loved to have seen the original Dubliners (Luke, Ronnie, Ciaran/Jim, Barney, and John) in concert...I listen to them every day. RIP Legend.

Love the way Luke always sang through gritted teeth. A great man. RIP. Still to this day singers intentionally or mistakenly try and attribute this Salford song to other towns. Me, family and some mates saw a band last week from Ireland who introduced it as being a Derry song. They got proper stroppy when we all shouted bollocks, that we were from Salford and that the Mrs even went to the same school there as its writer McColl had many years earlier.
