Several years ago members of Millstreet Monument Committee
and Friends travelled to Freemount Heritage Centre to participate in the recording of a special radio programme in the “Round the Fireside” series with Jimmy Reidy. Tonight at 8pm on Cork Music Station Jimmy Reidy has made this archival programme available (firstly repeated in 2020) and is being broadcast in memory of the late Tom Meaney as well as the late Tadhg Crowley and the late Conchubhar Ó hÉalaithe – all of whom feature in the programme. Also participating in the recording is Joan O’Mahony, Dan Joe O’Keeffe, Jerry Lehane, Séamus Buckley (providing the music) and other Guests. We happen to be there also video recording for an LTV2 Millstreet Programme. If tonight you happen to miss this special radio programme in the “Jimmy Reidy & Friends” series there will also be a repeat of the Programme at 10.45pm (approx.) on this Sunday following the Maureen Henry Show. Following this Programme is the weekly “Radio Treasures” Show with a special Ballinhassig Interview at 10pm.(S.R.)
