Friday's Live Drive Link-Up

This morning's Live Drive Link-Up brought us the dulcet tones of one Philip Parris 'Phil' Lynott, who would have been 61 today.

Mark didn't even break a "Cold Sweat" when he sent in this winning link:
Phil lynott's father-in-law was Lesley Crowther, the first host of Stars In Their Eyes, a programme of impersonators, the most commonly impersonated person is elvis, so play suspicious minds.

The quality of useless information that our listeners know never ceases to amaze us!





And The Best Of The Rest:

Old town to Dirty Aul Town - Luke Kelly. Musicman

Phil lynott was from dublin as were de dubliners who sang "dirty old town" but its a common misconception dat it was written about dublin. Ewan mc coll (kirsty's dad) wrote it about salford, greater manchester so it has 2 b DIRTY OLD TOWN by THE DUBLINER'S ! {ken from meath}
