Thread Name: Irish Rebel Songs as Social Document?
Subject: RE: Irish Rebel Songs as Social Document?
Keith A: "I have a Dubliners LP of that time with My Ould Alarm Clock, about planting bombs in London."

Interesting.
I have vague recollections of a song about 'the clockmaker', though I'm guessing the associations were the same?
Fully naive at the time, of the possible implications of course. Wish I could remember more.

Any more songs of that ilk?
