In Irish traditional music, the tunes are happy, but the songs are so, so sad. This week on Folk Club, Marty Cullen prepares the tissues ahead of An Afternoon of Sad Songs at the Sunflower, dares not to tipple or face ‘The Broken Pledge’ and hears of a highwayman with only one tooth, yet irresistible to women.
