    A traditional Irish piece with spaghetti Western guitars. Imagine Clint Eastwood and Lee Van Cleef taking aim at each other across the Connemara barrens north of Galway and south of Sligo.
    CD: Snipers In Derelict Houses -- a benefit album for The Pat Finucane Centre, Derry, Ireland   Label: © 1999 Triage Records
    Credits: Diane George on tin whistle, Pedro Gingerich on bass, Marc Lefton on electric triange, M.X. on guitar and drums, Flatbush Avenue 1916 Brass Ensemble on horns, produced by M.X., engineered by Ray Balconis at Studio Ray, Maspeth, Queens, NY

    Story Behind the Song
    Diane learned this one from Bill Ochs and brought it in. We somehow started playing it with a locomotive-rhythm, which, with the twangy way I was playing guitar, gave it a real spaghetti-western feel. So the band treatment imagines Clint Eastwood and Lee Van Cleef taking aim at each other across the Connemara barrens north of Galway and south of Sligo. The Flatbush Avenue 1916 Brass Ensemble contributed the spaghetti-western horn parts...while we were arranging those parts, we discovered how much the trumpet solo in "The Good, The Bad And The Ugly" sounds like the trumpet solo in "Penny Lane."
