YOU CAN
You Can (Mass Trespass, 1932) · Chumbawamba https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqg1PgEPLZU
The Young'uns and Boff Whalley on Kinder Scout https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0LNS2mv0fc&t=22s
You Tube doesn’t give titles for all the songs sung in this Young’uns video. The Manchester Rambler is one song but can anyone give titles to the other songs so we can then search on the internet for them?
And though notspecifically about the Kinder Scout Trespass another related song is RIGHT TO ROAM - Johnny Campbell feat: Commoners Choir & The Skelmanthorpe Brass Band https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83T5-A7BK0Y
