letra de henry mccullough - bp fallon & david holmes

Loading...

i remember it was 1966 in dublin
an’ i met you in a beat cellar
the people had come over from blackpool
henry mccullough you were the lead guitar player…
even then you were f-ckin’ amazing

and the people became éire apparent
and you toured america supporting jimi hendrix
and eric burdon & the new animals
and the soft machine

four men from northern ireland thrown into the full open mouth of psychedelia
and then henry you got busted for bit of jazz woodbine
and were put on a one way ticket to ireland
already you were the irish rock’n’roll outlaw
unsung hero

you’d been in a showband, the skyrockets from ennisk!llen
you’d been in another showband, gene & the gents
and now you’re in the éire apparent except you’d been busted
and put on a one way plane ticket to ireland
there you met up with johnny moynihan, terry woods… sweeney’s men

you had johnny moynihan’s eccentricities as a folk musician
and you had terry woods’ appalachian vibe
and you had henry’s rock’n’roll and blues and rhythm’n’blues and country and shades of hank and shades of muddy …magnificent

and then henry, henry joined the band led by this singer from sheffield…
joe c-cker… joe c-cker & the grease band
henry became their guitar player
they played at woodstock
henry mccullough was the only irish musician to play at woodstock…
with a little help from my friends, magnificent & beyond

the road was shiny but there were also shadows…
it wasn’t that simple……
and then this chappie came along……..
he’d been the b-ss player and co-writer, co-singer, in a popular
skiffabilly, rockabilly chooglebilly combo from liverpool…
the beatles… paul mccartney

so paul gets on the phone and he says henry will you join my
rockabilly chooglebilly, vibeabilly combo wings… it’s beautiful…
and since then henry played with the apex of rock’n’rollers………
eric burdon, marianne faithfull, roy harper, ronnie lane, frankie miller – and we hear henry’s voice on dark side of the moon by pink floyd (dr feelgood)

and he came to ireland and he did his own gigs and it wasn’t
necessarily with the flash and the glitter and the flash bulbs and the roar of the grease paint
that had been at times but none the less it was always magnificent

i’m very blessed that henry was my friend since 1966
we’re very lucky to travel a path and meet… magical people along the way and henry i salute you, i love you, i miss you already and i know you’ll always be here…
your music and your vibe and… i’ll see you when the time comes…
i love you, god bless

my friend, the end
i know you’re not coming back again
my friend, the end
i know you’re not coming back again
my friend, the end
i know you’re not coming back again
my friend, the end
i know you’re not coming back again
