Jolly Rogues my dear: Hearty thanks for becoming my musical friends. Celtic music is very beautiful and whenever I hear it, I remember my journey to Britain, South Ireland and also to a few countries in Europe. I was bewitched by the music of Makem and Clancy, Foster and Allen, Inna Miller, The Dubliners, Peter Mallan, etc. Congratulations on your career and if you have any spare time, please listen to my provincial songs and send me some comments. Please accept a musical embrace from your Brazilian admirer,
