See media help. 1940 recording by Glenn Miller and His Orchestra on RCA Bluebird, B-10612-B In 1910, in Bath, Somerset, England, the English lawyer and lyricist Frederic Weatherly initially wrote the words of "Danny Boy" to a tune other than "Londonderry Air". One story is that his sister-in-law Margaret Enright Weatherly (known as "Jess") sent him a copy of "Londonderry Air" in 1913, and Weatherly modified the lyrics of "Danny Boy" to fit its rhyme and meter. A different story has Jess singing the air to Weatherly in 1912 with different lyrics. Yet another story is that Frederic did not set the poem to any tune, but that, in 1913, Margaret, who, with her husband Edward Weatherly, was living at the Neosho mine near Ouray, Colorado, in the US, set it to the "Londonderry Air", which she had heard as a child in California played by her father and other Irish railway workers. Weatherly gave the song to the vocalist Elsie Griffin, who made it one of the most popular songs of the new century. Ernestine Schumann-Heink produced the first recording of "Danny Boy" in 1915. Jane Ross of Limavady is credited with collecting the melody of "Londonderry Air" in the mid-19th century from a musician she encountered. ------------------------------------ Source: Wikipedia.org ðŽVideofootage : Storyblocks ðļEuipment I used: Fender Stratocaster guitar Vox AC 15 C1 amp Stellar X3 microphone Zoom G3 Focusrite Scarlett Solo interface ðĩ My music (2025 LINKS) *: Spotify: http://bit.ly/47GdtoH * Deezer: http://bit.ly/4nBXjm8 * Amazon Music: https://bit.ly/49kxWlt * Apple Music: http://bit.ly/4oMnS96 * âĪïļ My social links: Facebook:   / ludwig.gitarre  Instagram:   / ludwig_guitar  TikTok:   / ludwigguitar  Ad/Werbung #guitarinstrumental #goldenoldies #romanticguitar
