dominic had a record with Topic records called 'songs of revolution' of 'songs of rebellion'. It had a stunning song called 'Limerick Green' which was written about Sean South who was killed in 1956 with Fergal O'Hanlon. Also a hair raising song about Sean Tracey who was killed in Talbot street in Dublin during the War of Independence. Bawnog.

I have always been a fan of Irish satire, whether in Gaelic or in English. This song is truly vicious in its mockery of the British Empire. Thank you so much for posting it!

THere's something comforting about those tiny crackles and pops on favorite old records. They'll never better vinyl. Love it, Alan!
