GUEST,Guest, Big Tim Lyr Req: Henny Munroe (Jim McLean) (11) RE: Lyr Req: Henny Munroe 08 Sep 02


Jim: I don't think I'll be able to guess. "Finto[a?]n Connolly = Fintan Lalor/James Connolly? Therefore a land leaguing Irish socialist? Wolfe Stephens = Tone/James Stephens? An Irish literary republican rebel? Too many of those to guess at! Any clues? "Henny Munroe" is a damn good set of lyrics, especially for 1968, new to me. Excellent social, political background detail, atmosphere,etc, for one so young! Is it based on reality or purely imaginary? I've got Eric Richards' biog of Patrick Sellar (1999)sitting in front of me, tried reading it a few times but find it quite heavy going. I guess I'm now really only interested in Irish stuff. Cheers, B.T.
