Ronnie Drew
Joseph Ronald Drew (16 September 1934 – 16 August 2008) was an Irish people, Irish singer, folk musician and actor who achieved international fame during a fifty-year career recording with The Dubliners. He is most recognised for his lead vocals on the single "Seven Drunken Nights" and "The Irish Rover" both charting in the UK top 10 and then performed on ''Top of the Pops, TOTP''. He was recognisable for his long beard and pale blue eyes and his voice, which was once described by Nathan Joseph as being "like the sound of Coke (fuel), coke being crushed under a door". Early life Ronnie Drew was born in Dún Laoghaire, Dún Laoghaire, County Dublin in 1934. Although he was so intimately associated with being "a Dubliner", he would sometimes say, "I was born and grew up in Dún Laoghaire, and no true Dubliner would accept that at all!", a quip that Andy Irvine (musician), Andy Irvine relayed in his song "O'Donoghue's".''Mozaik – Changing Trains'', Compass Records 744682, 20 ...

There's Life In The Old Dog Yet
''There's Life in the Old Dog Yet'' is an album by Ronnie Drew, released in 2006. Produced by Phil Coulter, who wrote the title track, Drew recorded this album of songs about growing old shortly before being diagnosed with Esophageal cancer, throat cancer in 2006, an irony which was commented on a few months later by both men on ''The Late Late Show (Ireland), The Late Late Show''. The album contains many oldies or Standard (music), standards, with the predominant theme of the album being old age and death. Even the traditionally upbeat singalong "The Wild Rover" has been transformed here into a lament. Whereas in the traditional version, the singer is saying he "will play the wild rover no more", this is his own choice; but in the version here, the reason is thar he is no longer able. Not all the songs are downbeat and mournful. The title track is optimistic and "Wait Till The Clouds Roll By" is optimistic also: "Jenny, we'll be together / Just wait 'til the clouds roll by." T ...
