Update: 2022-12-11
Description
Joe Dolan was one of Ireland’s greatest ever entertainers. He was our Elvis Presley. Our first pop star.
Joe performed on BBC’s Top Of The Pops, toured the world as an international star, played in Las Vegas and had a string of hits that included The Answer To Everything, Make Me An Island, Lady In Blue and Good Looking Woman.
One man who stood alongside him for almost 50 years as a performer was his older brother, Ben Dolan.
Here, in a two-part My Country Life podcast as we reach the 15th anniversary of Joe’s death, Ben shares his personal family memories of growing up with Joe in their native Mullingar and recalls their early adventures as musicians.
