Finn McCool Songs About Hell (74* d) RE: Songs About Hell 12 Jul 01


Gareth raises a fascinating question: Did Brenadan Behan write Bells of Hell or lift it for The Hostage? That play does contain a lifted tune: Boys of Kilmichael, which appears in the play as "The 14th Day of November". In the original song, the lyric is "on the 28th day of November", however. In all other respects the lyrics and tune are the same.

Any results from the Cardiff Library that shed light on the Bells question?
