Welcome to the official YouTube channel of Foster & Allen, the musical duo from Ireland consisting of Mick Foster and Tony Allen. The story of Foster & Allen began back in the seventies when Mick & Tony were playing in Country Music bands around Ireland. In 1975 they got together a small group and went over to the U.K. to work the Irish music venues on a short tour. Mick & Tony had at this stage the idea of working together as a duo, playing ‘easy listening’ music with a touch of traditional Irish instrumentals. When their U.K. tour finished they decided to let the band return to Ireland whilst they stayed behind to try out the ‘DUO’ on the public. They played several venues in the London area and the reaction was very favourable; so much so, they decided to remain as a duo and ‘FOSTER & ALLEN’ was formed. They are celebrating over 50 years together in the music business. #fosterandallen #irishmusic #50at50 Lyrics: As I walked down the road on this fine autumn morn I can see the great combine collecting the corn And my mind wanders back in the moment of joy To the day of the thresher when I was a boy All over the valley you could hear the strange sound Of that mighty machine on its annual round All the men in the townland would follow at will And they’d all lend a hand with the old threshing’mill So boil up the bacon and the cabbage that’s green Have plenty of spuds laced with butter between For eight empty bellies will soon need a fill For it makes a man hungry, the old threshin’ mill There were two on the thresher and two on the stack And the man with the fork kept the straw flyin’ back There were bottles of porter and plenty of fags And old Larry Andy looked after the bags Then a few of the boys built the straw in the reek While the young ones had fun playing hide and go seek And myself and my brother with the dogs and the cats Had the time of our lives chasin’ after the rats So boil up the bacon and the cabbage that’s green Have plenty of spuds laced with butter between For eight empty bellies will soon need a fill For it makes a man hungry, the old threshin’ mill But the times keep on changing and nothing stands still Larry Andy is gone like his old threshin’ mill And most of the workers I knew as a child Have reaped the great harvest for which they have toiled No more in the valley we’ll hear that machine For just like the corn crake they’ve gone from the scene But it makes me feel sad as I dream of it still For I long for the dear sound of the old threshin’ mill So boil up the bacon and the cabbage that’s green Have plenty of spuds laced with butter between For eight empty bellies will soon need a fill For it makes a man hungry, the old threshin’ mill For it makes a man hungry, the old threshin’ mill
