Eric was interviewed for a UK Television programme about the history of the traditional song “Danny Boy.” He was also filmed in Olympic Studios, London performing the number on guitar. The programme “Danny Boy” also aired in America on PBS stations for several years. It was available for a time in the US on VHS.

“Danny Boy” has never been released on a full-length CD of Eric’s. However, it was included as a bonus track on Eric’s 1992 CD single “Change The World”.
