George McCarthy from the Lawrence collection. Torn fro ma book by the looks of it. The originals were in the National Library and probably now in the National Photo Archive. During the early eighties I had all the pictures printed by the Library's reproduction service. Fine prints all fro mthe original glass plate. A fiver each at the time. I assume prints can still be had.

- Tell us something.: I am interested in the uilleann pipes and their typical -and broader- use. I have been composing and arranging for the instrument lately. I enjoy unusual harmonic combinations on the pipes. I use the pipes to play music of other cultures.

The original photo from which this work was made can be seen on the following page from the Uilleann Obsession website:

There are some other photos of George there too.
Some of them are blasphemous.

Yes those were the scans I made of the prints I have (or at least two of the five prints I have left) but as I said: among the glass plates was one that was done up with pencil and brush to produce the image on e-bay and it was not the one on the obsession site. Unfortunately I have given away that print so I can't post it here.
