Last year my band was scheduled to play on St. Pat’s day. Had to cancel for obvious reasons. We are not an Irish band but as I grew up during the “Great Folk Scare”, Irish ballads were part and parcel of the movement. It ain’t all drinking green beer and passing out in the gutter. It was a long struggle for independence, bloody, brutal and nasty on both sides.
A few tunes of remembrance.
Plenty more where these came from.
