Memories of Irish Birdsong "He must have thought I had looked at his sister funny, as he snarled “kerrx-kerrx” at me and started to fling his droppings. I was told afterwards that the whole family was mad. Brothers all musicians in America."

Who killed the 1970's Irish bird music scene?

Me. I did it.

Also, little known but untrue fact, English band Flock of Seagulls started out as a seagulls cover band but sold out and started playing New Wave.
