Can't believe this news. A big fan of a great man. Completely illiterate and so talented. RIP.

I AM A STAR"

Lovely man, true gent, some great songs in his songbook. Hadn't played some of his stuff in ages but had it flying this evening.

Another great Kerryman gone to the Kerry soil too soon. RIP Christie

Knocked out a few of his songs today. Looking forward to hearing the album.

Was very sorry to hear of Christie's passing.  It is an overused comment I know, but you would not have met a nicer, more down to earth, sociable person as Christie Hennessy.  As already said, one of the most distinctive voices not just in Irish music, but in world music.  May he rest in peace.
