THIS EVENING'S MUSIC - BONNY PORTMORE (from HIGHLANDER) -- THE AMERICAN ROGUES & THE U.S. AIR FORCE SYMPHONY

"Bonny Portmore" is an Irish traditional folk song which laments the demise of Ireland's old oak forests, specifically the Great Oak of Portmore or the Portmore Ornament Tree, which fell in a windstorm in 1760 and was subsequently used for shipbuilding and other purposes.
