Around the time of this fundraising concert, on April 3oth 1989, Irish actor Richard Harris had appointed me to be his official biogrpaher. This project involved me taping all of my conversations with Richard, "even our personal phone calls" he suggested. It also involved me taping Richard's contribution to that 'Night of the Stars' at the Abbey Theatre. But, as I say, in the intro to this podcast, as someone who loves the poetry of William Butler Yeats, I ended up taping far more than just Richard's contribution. This is Bono half singing and half reciting Mad as the Mist and Snow. But, be warned, the sound is most definitely not Hi-Fi! Btw, I call this podcast a "single" becuase it last roughly five minutes. Enjoy.
