Ireland’s First Legend
Brian pays tribute to one of Northern Ireland’s great legends, Brian Coll.
Another chance to hear this special tribute to one of Northern Ireland’s great legends, Brian Coll.
Making his name as a solo singer, as well as the frontman of Irish showbands, Brian Coll was once told by Charley Pride he could have been a world star of country music, but chose to close to his home in Omagh.
In this special tribute programme, Fr Brian recalls his childhood memories of Brian Coll as the ‘leader of the pack’, and plays the music that had the dancers on the floor in the major ballrooms of Ireland for half a century.
