September 24 marks the 215th anniversary of the crushing of the 1798 Irish Rebellion by the British imperialists. To mark the occasion here are two classic ballads of the 1798 uprising. The first clip includes the songs Croppy Boy (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Croppy_Boy) and Boolavogue (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolavogue_(song)) performed at the 1981 Cornelius Cardew memorial concert. Second clip https://youtube/watch?v=gENR8pY9qyI is a long form two-piano version of Boolavogue that samples Blackleg Miner and The Internationale as well.
