Eireann go Bragh - [Edit: This is Fee McGorman]

[bettyswollex]

Mile beachuis, I had this on a tape when I was younger.. It still makes the hairs stand up on the nape of my neck..

[mceldowneycole]

McEldowney means "Servant of the true church!"

Me as a McEldowney am indeed!

[BrodEirennach90]

It's actually spelled Éirinn go brách.

[ZachsLover101]

[m16a1rifle]

greetings from the USA!

eireann go bragh - tiocfaidh ar la - de oppresso liber!!!

[SolAurum]

These are great songs you have, continuing the bardic tradition.

[belfastandproud]

this is a great version and the hell with the wolf tones, men like fee mc gorman sang these songs because they were republican not the the wolfe tones who would rather sing songs about the bog warriors of county mayo lol or biddy mulligans from county galway lol .

[Schtiel666]

Indeed.

[impostorB]

I'll rather listen to Fee or Declan Hunt (My favorite), but the Tones are still out and about singing the songs. So lets give'em some credit. The biddy mulligans kept them somewhat mainstream, and lent credibility to their line about how their singing of Rebel songs is just a recount of Irish history. The bards job is to tell the story, they're still doing it to a wider audience.

[irishmanandproud]

i agree declan hunt is the best but this guy sings some great songs as well, he does the best version of bold robert emmet and daily mail

[lreland1]

Been a bit busy Andy. wdc with ya these days? Were you over here? I saw a few mobile vids on your site.

[weephil]

thx

[macker33]

I actually have this song but never knew who sang it because the singers were never credited,thanks.

[lreland1]

no probs. Just wanted to stick a few of these songs on... These guys very rarely get credited and yet these are the singers most people have heard from rebel records of the 70's and 80's.

[impostorB]

This is Fee McGorman singing. It's from the LP "Songs of the Irish Republic - Outlet BOL4005"

[bettyswollex]

is O Donavan Rossa on that LP? I had a tape years ago , is it the same?

[impostorB]

Yes it is. 1. Down by the Liffey Side 2. God Save Ireland for the Empire 3. General Munro 4. Tribute to Barnes and M'Cormack 5. Castle of Drumboe 6. Erin go Bragh 7. Show Me the Man 8. O'Donovan Rossa 9. Lament for Sean South 10. Gra Mo Croidhe 11. Kevin Barry 12. Man from the Daily Mail

[sobr21azzaro]

any chance to get that particular LP on mainland Europe? please help me to get it.

[TaZBhoyFontenoy]

i fuckin had it and broke it as a kid?

i had the joe mccann one as well!

still have the flying column"18 Republican Songs" and "Four Green Feilds"

[impostorB]

There is a compilation out there called 40 best rebel songs with this song credited to Eugene. Other songs credited to Eugene are also sung by Fee McGorman. Some songs by "Mark's Men" (Declan Hunt) are also sung by Fee. Some songs credited to Mark's Men are clearly Ray M. Never believe compilations, it was probably a 16 year old intern that put the track list together.

[lreland1]

Yes, have to agree with you there. There are always errors in these albums. Thanks for mailing me last week, I only replied tonight. Just listening to the songs again it's bloody obvious Fee is the singer of most of them. The Wolfhound one Ireland United, is stated as 'Liam McGarry' which is not part of that compilition 40 Best Rebel Songs.

[Trobus]

hm..I like this version, but the wolfe tones's version kicks more asses x) btw isn't this song called "A Row In The Town"?

[lreland1]

Aye that's what the Wolfetones call it I think.

[crazymonkey60]

Like this version of the song. Thanks for the Lyrics!

[lreland1]

You're welcome.
