Clean Cabbage in the Bucket

Are you looking for a good, light hearted book to read? Give "Clean Cabbage in the Bucket and Other Tales from the Irish Music Trenches" a try. The authors are a unique bunch of Irish musicians and singers -- Frank Emerson, Seamus Kennedy, Robbie O'Connell, Harry O'Donoghue, and Dennis O'Rourke.

My experience over the years in talking with all sorts of Irish entertainers is that they have great tales to tell; this book is no exception. These fellows give a very entertaining account of some of their experiences -- they will keep you laughing, maybe you'll shed a tear or two; but for sure you will enjoy this book.

I bought my book from Seamus Kennedy when last he was in Pittsburgh. You too can purchase the book from Seamus at his website at
www.seamus-kennedy.com. After you read it for yourself, purchase a couple of copies as gifts. This will make an excellent present for someone who enjoys the 'craic' on your Christmas list.

You can also order the book at these websites:
