Listening to a poor quality cassette of a friend's compilaton of old Thistle and Shamrock, I heard something I will call "Sands of Evening"... that seemed to be one of Maura's. The song intrigued me.

Where can I find what album this may be on, or the lyrics of this one...

Chorus included the words...

"Search where no ships are sailing
No sound of heart's breaking
or down in deepest Africa
no one will find him there."

Hi Roberta:

The song is Gerry O'Beirne's The Isle of Malachy, which is on Maura's record JUST IN TIME.

You can have a look at the discography page for that record at:
