TREES aka Strange Fruit
The power of “Strange Fruit” describes a lynching, a lifeless body hanging from a flowering tree. The Lyrics originate as a POEM Written by Abel Meeropol (1903-1986), a teacher, poet and songwriter, who published as Lewis Allan

My 21st Century Version is inspired by Nina Simone and Billy Holiday

I thought it best to share an Extract From the Essay by Cary O’Dell Added to the American National Registry in 2002, "Billie Holiday Original label Abel Meeropol (Poet and Writer) Considering the vivid images and sustained metaphor of the song Strange Fruit, it shouldn’t be surprising that it began as a poem"

Here I am in 2019 Interviewed by Larry Skynt. Hey "Wild is the wind" and Hey! 'You Too' you too, you too, you too, and Hey! 'you too' - all you lovely people I hope and trust you know who you are :)

Dublin Daoine  (Dublin People)

A Candid interview series hosted by Larry Skynt, filmed  by David Duggan. "Larry chats with Sheila about her amazing career so far which has taken her to all corners of the globe."

(P.S. "amazing" because I managed to keep breathing and hey! not quite all "corners" of the earth)

Kindness and Regards to Brew, Larry and David
