Memories from my childhood my mum knew every word and sang so proudly. She shared her love for Ireland 🇮🇪 with all of her children. Thanks for the memories ❤

[@marymcgilloway5707]

My grandfather used to play these records to me when I was a baby still remember them I love this music 🎶🎵🎶

[@user-fy3dx6tv1q]

Every Sunday morning my Mum used to play this album, she would sing at the top of her voice and we joined in, God I miss her ❤

RIP to your mum.

The best and true most realistic music to a cause that is relevant to a modern and free united and free Ireland

[@user-be2dk3qb1g]

Kevin Barry is a most poignant song and I love playing this track bought the LP when it came out

[@1teenybop]

My brother in law played keyboard's with The freedom fighters ,Ian steele,,I remember belting these songs out as a wee boy and getting told off saying I would get onto trouble😂😂

[@johnoquigley3089]

Use to sing these songs in school late 60s

[@donnamachugh5721]

My mother used to play all the rebel songs every Sunday. She was a Gillespie and her father had to flee Ireland in the 1920"s ,

[@annewatkis5824]

My mother played this most Saturdays. We grew listening to them. The rebel songs were forbidden in the UK, mum played them anyway. She was 25 in 1960 when she and dad came over to England, to a farm labourers job. My sister, my brother and I came with them. I still feel teary when I listen to them and I’m 70 in November. God bless.

My dad had this record and sang this version of Kevin Barry every Hogmanay. We played this album so often, our version had a different cover sleeve! This is fantastic! You've made my year dude! ❤

[@timberwolf5211]

I was raised hearing this album from a very early age. My dad said he got this one and another Album by the Freedom Fighters, A Nation Once Again in Ireland, while he was based in Cork, with the Merchant Navy. He said that being there made him feel his Irish roots, and fall in love with the country. He always wanted to go back. He would speak of the beauty of the country, and the people. Many years later, he finally managed to return, even though it was only for a week, on the Shannon, it was a fantastic week.

I bought this LP in Ireland (Bray) in my teens. I had it for over 30 years and it was played more than any other record i ever owned.

It’s made my day finding this on KZbin, despite the tears I wasn’t expecting. I have this album, it was my Dad’s. We don’t have any Irish connections that I’m aware of, my dad just loved the music and I grew up, like many others here, listening to to it in the 70’s. I’m now 61 and still know all the words. Currently reading a book set in West Cork in the 1920’s and it’s given me a whole different perspective to what came afterwards with the IRA. Thank you to whoever put this on here. It will be very much listened to now ☘️🇮🇪

There's a little Irish in everyone. After the long 100years war in Europe, it was the Irish monks who went out to educate the nobility in Europe as so many had died.

I grew up listening to these songs, my late mum was from Adglass Co Down I'm proud of my Irish roots and have yesterday returned from a 10 day visit. My brother has this LP I know all the words. I feel very sad that these songs even exist. The suffering of the Irish people is something that should never be forgotten.. and certainly lesson should be learnt ❤

[@timberwolf5211]

I watched an episode of Who Do You Think You Are featuring Boy George, In the episode he was saying as a teen, at family gatherings at his home, one of his Aunties would get a bit tipsy, and tell him to put the Freedom Fighters on. He actually sings some of Kevin Barry too. One of his relatives was hanged for being a part or the Uprising, and is buried next to or near Kevin Barry.

My Father was Irish. We lived in London but my fathers heart was in Ireland. His mind was in the IRA. I was 7 years old. I am now 60. He played this album often.

I've got this LP still. When I brought it in 1967 my dad surprised me by knowing most of the words to most of the songs. He had learnt them as a young British soldier during WW2. Apparently they used to sing them to annoy the Officers.

Old man Nye brought me up on this best childhood

[@SarahRWilson]

In the early seventies, mom took a trip to Ireland, and came back with this gem. It became a favorite of mine throughout the years. When I was young, we sang the first verse on a cassette tape I still remember the sound of us. Over time mom is gone, and over chaos, so is the album. I'm incredibly grateful that this is online, and I get to hear it again. Someday, this album will play through the hi-fi again. I'll have to be patient though, I don't imagine a remaster of this, and that leaves the original pressings. And I'm totally fine with that. Edit: I just learned through Discogs that there were 3 pressings of this album, 2 in GB, and one in Canada. The Canadian lacquer was cut at RCA Toronto, which was a decent mastering house. For the GB pressings, Pickwick handed that over to a CBS studio there.

My dad had this LP in his record collection, maybe borrowed from his Irish mum.

So pleased to hear these songs again, 50 years later! Thanks a million for the upload 🙏

[@JBW678]

A bloke who my dad knew walked into a pub in Sheffield in the 70’s dressed in a green tunic and gave him this on cassette along some others and said look after this coz I might be in prison soon. I used to have to play it for him everyday when he came home from pub. He eventually borrowed it out and lost it. I looked everywhere for this version of Kevin Barry and somehow came across this page. Bought the vinyl and at 74 he couldn’t believe it. X

"During the tenure of the revamped Fontana showband, an offer came to us to record an LP. of Irish rebel songs, So through Arthur Frewn an associate of Harry Royston, along with record producer Siggy Jackson, we recorded the first of five Lp,s for the Pitwick label. The first album was recorded in a small studio in the old Kent Rd, the studio later became the headquarters of the famous Manfred Mann band. The LP had ten tracks in all, it was a huge seller, sold over half a million copies in a few weeks. It was entitled IRISH REBEL SONGS, by The Irish Freedom Fighters. Its still listed in ‘Record Mirror’ as one of the biggest sellers, having sold now in excess of two million copies worldwide. The band went on to tour Canada & America, where they met and played for Senator Ted Kennedy, who became a great fan of the boys" www.choicepublishing.ie/index_files/Page3782.htm
