Butch Moore – remembering the singing legend 20 years on
Shortly before he died, 20 years ago on April 3rd, 2001, Ireland’s Eurovision legend Butch Moore reflected on his career in an interview with Colm Keane.
Mayhem and madness erupted at Dublin Airport on the night of March 22, 1965. The uproar was prompted by the return of Butch Moore from the Eurovision Song Contest in Naples. More than 5,000 fans screamed their heads off on the airport balcony and in the arrivals hall. They waved banners and placards and chanted “We want Butch! We want Butch!”
Guards, airport officials and security men struggled to keep the fans in check. Hundreds of teenage girls jammed the doors of the airport lounge. Some made it onto the apron, close to where the singer’s aircraft had come to a halt. The place had seen nothing like it before, not even when The Beatles had arrived there in November 1963.
Remembering the man who brought the Beatles and the Bee Gees to the Borders by Loudon Temple A SCOT who brought some of the biggest names in pop and rock north of the Border, is to be honoured as “Scotland’s first impresario,” over fifty years after he died. The MacArts Centre in Galashiels has already been set up in the memory of Duncan Mackinnon – a legendary character who dedicated his life to keeping teenagers happy in the rock n roll era and Swinging Sixties. He had served with the 5th Btn KOSB, surviving some of the most intensive action that took place in World War II, and was determined to make a success of his life.
