Satyrix1: The band was "The Men of No Property". The singer was Brian Moore (RIP). He died a few months ago. His used the Nom de Guerre "McIlvogue" on the three of four albums they produced. He was also very well known as "Cormac", the cartoonist for An Phoblacht / Republican News for many years.
A great tribute to a non sectarian workers republican,before their time,despite all the opposition during that era,I dont think god would have survive the 70,s.
Just examine the people in power? The ordinary man is very patient,with those right wing Thatcherites religious nationalists.
@pudnog01 Did you hear about Mclutchen. Big Billy? He was a tout. Joe was killed after he left his house. J mcCracken got 5 years for holding arms in house -Billy the bastard was grassing left right and centre
Yes indeed, that is Big Joe at about 110 and 130 in this video. These phots were taken the night of "The Battle of Inlis'Bakery" when Joe and about 5 of his men held off 600 British soldiers.
The photo Big Joe with his M1 Carbine remains one of the most iconic images of the Irish Struggle.

@9lordmark I only met him briefly. he was a pure working class man. He was only 17 days older than me. I was in awe of him. RIP Joe.

@homerbhoy1 - Indeed, a great loss. A man of many talents, and just an all around good man.
