    Sean-nós - Irish for "old style" singing

      It is said these two songs spring from the same tune - but with different lyrics applied in the American west... Separated by hundreds of years and the Atlantic Ocean, I alternate the verses of the two songs here, showing the similarity..

      There's a close similarity between the Streets of Laredo and the sean-nós ballad Bard of Armagh.
