Rule and O’Brien delivered a corking No. 2 and placed later would undoubtedly have nabbed a full sized hit. Most of their songs are new and all given rendition in different style than the usual. For a sample, they opened with a New Orleans number, then shot one over. For the number a flock of old tunes were dressed up in “wet” lyrics to excellent purpose. That was the true of an Irish number and it sent them out to heavy returns, the men well earning the encore.
