The Pogues – The Sick Bed Of Cuchulainn Lyrics
| 13 years ago

Back in the nineties I was listening to this song and also Viva La Quinta Brigada by Christy Moore. Both songs mention Frank Ryan - I asked my father about him and he said I should talk to my Gran. I knew my Gran had supported the anti-fascists in the Spanish Civil War by knitting balaclavas and now she told me about this and also hearing La Pasionaria speak in Manchester, throwing stones at blackshirts and a bit of Frank Ryan's history - he was a Church of Ireland minister I gather. |
