Thanks MT. It's an itch now so will have to look further for the guy......was a nasty piece of work and somewhat of a "look at me I'm a star" and unpleasant.

Michael Tucker Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 I've just found out that Joe Dolan also released a version. Not heard it myself, but the guy could sing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you might have solved the mystery. Joe Dolan was from Mullingar. I narrowed it down to two - either Dolan or Dickie Rock - "Dickie Rock" eh...what a stage name.He looked as ridiculous as his name suggests - an 80 year old face with a cheap wig.
