I'm not sure about the movies, but it sounds like the same Shay!  He was a
resident at the Liverpool Trad Club at the Cross Keys and also sang with
"Stormalong John". I remember he qualified as one of the first male midwives
in the country.  I've heard he's in the USA now!

Is Shay Black the same Shay that made an appearance in a big-time movie - a
prisoner or something in Alien 2 or 3? (I'm rotten at remembering names). If
so, he used to perform as a floor singer at the Folk club I helped run in
Liverpool back in the 80's (Adrian House). Oh heck, he probably heard me
play the pipes when I was learning them as well (I as one of the residents).
Wouldn't have been a nice experience. A talented guy though.
Alas, I haven't seen him for years.
Small world.
