A little music for Breana, and everyone else that has told me they like the Celtic and Irish music, and wish I still shared a song once in a while…
I present to you Silly Wizard… and no, not the Unicorn Song. Instead, this is teh Queen of Argyll, one of my favorite songs of all time.
Enjoy.

A man after my own heart.
The husband and I had plans to see Andy Stewart a couple/few years back. He was going to be playing a VERY small venue in Vermont and we managed to get tickets and arranged a place to stay for the night (we’re in CT). We were so excited!
Then Mr Stewart went and threw his back out and cancelled the show.
I’m still waiting for him to schedule something nearby…..

Silly Wizard rocks. The Queen of Argyle is one of my favorite songs. Ramblin Rover and Donald are two of my other favs.
The Tim Malloys used to play quite a bit of Silly Wizard’s music for me and BBB. I once asked why an Irish band was playing a Scot song. The answer: Scotsman are only Irishmen who learned how to swim. BBB you should put up Tim Malloy’s Whiskey was my First.
