Windy City Irish Radio

"But the bravest fell, and the requiem bell rang mournfully and clear For those who died that Eastertide in the springing of the year And the world did gaze, in deep amaze, at those fearless men, but few Who bore the fight that freedom’s light might shine through the foggy dew." - The Foggy Dew by Canon Charles O'Neill, parish priest in Kilcoo, County Down This week marks the 100th Anniversary of the Easter Rising and on a very special edition of Windy City Irish Radio, Tim and Mike pay tribute to the brave men and women who fought and died for a free Ireland. Tune in for stories, poems and songs of The Rising from The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem, Tupelo, Michael Flatley with Finbar Furey, Black 47, Patrick Cassidy with Síbeal Ní Casside, the Wolfe Tones, and The Dubliners.
