Ally McGurk who provided this photo writes: John Codona "Here is John Codona performing on his one-man-band outside our stair in Warrender Park Road, sometime in the 1950s or early 1960s. As he got older he could no longer carry the big drum, and there's another picture of him here, showing him when he played just the chanter. He was a regular visitor to our street throughout my childhood, and was, I believe, a member of the Codona fairground family." Ally McGurk, July 16, 2007 |
