Outrageous. No mention of Sharon's sister Mary Shannon, herself an accomplished melodeon player and singer, and a member of the Woodchoppers, alongside Sharon. She has appeared on several of Sharon's albums and with Natalie McMaster. Ogg 19:14, 11 November 2005 (UTC)

Outrageous? Two weeks ago the article didn't exist! In any case, in regards to its failure to mention her talented sister:

Also there is no mention of the last two Cds she has made. She recorded "Tunes" with Frankie Gavin(fiddle), Michael McGoldrick(flute, low whistle) and Jim Murray(nylon guitar). Again in 2006 she recorded "Upside Down" with Dezi Donnelly(fiddle), McGoldrick and Murray. However this CD was not offically made and sold. They toured Austrilia and New Zealand with it. Recently, she went back into the studio to record "Renegade" with Dezi, Mike,Jim and a host of other musicians in 2007. They are currently touring this new CD in Ausraulia and NZ. They will be launching it in Ireland in late November and early December. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.77.173.80 (talk) 13:22, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Someone had written that her music had been "remixed as dance music" - apparently unaware that almost all her music is for dancing. Ogg 14:35, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

There is no mention of a husband or partner - is there any information regarding this side of Sharon's life? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.54.45.30 (talk) 12:45, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
