    Hi

    Just putting a post on here to see if any one has ever heard of a singer called Packie Cunningham from Fermanagh/Tyrone/Donegal who would have been active in the 70s/80s. I am helping the Musical Traditions Label in the UK put together a CD of recordings taken of singers from along the Fermanagh/Monaghan/Cavan border by an English collector, the late Keith Summers in the late 70s early 80s. One of the singers that was recorded was a Packie Cunningham, unfortunately Keith did not take any notes on Packie and we have run into a brick wall in trying to find information on him. In one of the recordings Packie mentions that he may have gone to school in Bundoran and from his accent he would most likely have been from the Fermanagh/Donegal border. He may even have been from Tyrone as some of his songs are from County Tyrone. I know this is a long shot but any information would be appreciated.
