The renowned Dublin singer and record maker Frank Harte has died at the age of 72.
Born in Chapelizod, he was well known for his rendition of songs and produced a book on 'Dublin Street Songs'.
Mr Harte, a retired architect, was also a great collector of songs, from Dublin and Northern Ireland.
He also has a string of recordings to his name, most notably 'Through Dublin City', 'Daybreak', 'A Candle End' and his most recent production about the famine entitled 'Great Hunger'.
Mr Harte had a particular fondness for the late 18th Century French leader Napoleon Bonaparte, and wrote a number of songs about him.
