Only Our Rivers Run Free - Kathleen Largey

[MrJimmymac48]

I'll take you home again and again and again, Kathleen!!! I just added your rendition to my favorites list! Great job!

[marty245]

nice to have peace

[MusicMadGuy2010]

The issue or Irish unity was rarely mentioned if at all during the recent elections in the north of Ireland. Are Sinn Fein operating a policy of appeasment to their unionist brothers?, Irish unity and Sinn Fein are becoming more and more distant. A fat cheque from the british exchequer seems more appealing to SinnFein than Irish unity, Martyers like Bobby Sands and the hunger strikers, Mairead Farrel, must be turning in their graves.

Its nice to get quality recordings like this from this era. A lot of the vids posted on youtube from 70's and before dont sound so good.

[paco2006able]

[bigdex123]

kathleen largey what a champion for the irish republican cause i remember talking to maire drumm about the flying column she said without them we would be in a far worse place than we are now what she meant was through music and song ireland has rallied there young to the flag i for wouldnt have been invlved as strongly without my parents playing the flying column in the house in andersonstown im not saying it was the only factor but it helped

[LURIG81]

Kathleen was sadly taken by cancer too young. My mother speaks very fondly of her as a lovely lady as they were in hospital at the same time. Her husband Eamon was also a great singer who was sadly killed in a car crash in Andytown in the 70's. Great Irish family of ballad singers

@HardcoreHeavenHCTID God bless Ireland and it's beautiful people

[JEANETTE60]

A beautiful song

[bbudacious]

beautiful message. we all want freedom and love.

[aglennane]

as a child, my nan used to always play and sing alot of irish songs. I was brought up and raised in Liverpool. I would be very interested in my nans stories about Ireland, that of what her parents experienced in coming from Ireland. Liverpool new generation do not know fully what our ancestors experienced during the trouble. Listening to each word of this song, sums up alot of the emotions. This song really touched me, I had to stop an listen to each word the first time I heard it.

[IrishMartin]

Liverpool - Irish town.

[aglennane]

what year did she die?

[lreland1]

1979

[aglennane]

Obsolutely wonderful, her voice is perfect, R.I.P

[copey316]

when i listen to this song my child hood comes flooding back like going to dublin on protest marches riots on oldpark road and in ardoyne mocked up cells on the street corner to let the world know of dirty protest hunger strkes men lost to a war that still carrys on victory to 3rd batt ardoyne no surrender

[lugh100]

"What burns where the flame used to be"? God Bless Kathleen a true rebel heart and Irish republican.

[PILGARLIC42]

R.I.P. kathleen , absolute magic....ty for the post brought memories back.

[kieronupthra]

[lorgain2]
