Jim Carroll	Songs of the 1916 Easter Rising (56* d)	RE: Easter Rising	25 Mar 15
IMO Best album ever of Easter Rising songs was 'Easter Weel and After by Dominic Behan (not my favourite singer) Best published collection of songs - The Easter Rising in Song and Ballad by C Desmond Grieves (Patrick Galvin's excellent 'Songs of Irish Resistance covers it well, but it's only a small part of the book. Best book on the events, 'Agony at Easter' (based almost entirely on eye-witness accounts) by Thomas Coffey There's a lovely description in the book of a dozen volunteers from Liverpool getting off the ferry at the North Wall, going to the nearest stop and getting on the first tram - their leader says "twelve tickets to the revolution please".
