Christy Moore - Yellow Triangle Christy Moore - Yellow Triangle (after Pastor Niemöller - dedicated to the memory of Phyllis McGhee) In Germany they first came for the Communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me — and by that time no one was left to speak up.

Christy Moore - Go Down, Ye Murderers Go Down,Ye Murderers (The Ballad of Tim Evans)was written by Ewan MacColl about Timothy John Evans (November 20, 1924 -- March 9, 1950). Evans was a young man, possibly mentally retarded, who was hanged in the United Kingdom in 1950 for the murder of his wife and infant daughter. The real murderer was Evans' neighbour and landlord (at 10 Rillington Place, Notting Hill, London), John Christie. Events subsequent to his execution, including a book by Ludovic Kennedy proclaiming his innocence and a pardon for the murders, led to abolition of capital punishment in Britain.

Al Kooper Interview Al Kooper talks about the recording of Bob Dylan's Like A Rolling Stone Kooper's most notable playing with Dylan is the striking organ parts on "Like a Rolling Stone". Kooper had been invited to the session as an observer, and hoped to be allowed to sit in on guitar, his primary instrument. After hearing a guitar player who turned out to be Mike Bloomfield warming up, and recognizing that Bloomfield was a much better player, Kooper put his guitar aside and went to the control room. During the recording of Like a Rolling Stone, Paul Griffin moved from organ to piano. Kooper told producer Tom Wilson that he had a good organ part for the song (which he later noted that it was just a ruse to get into the session), and Wilson responded "You're not an organ player, you're a guitar player", but Kooper insisted that he play. Before Wilson could explicitly reject Kooper, he got a phone call. Kooper went and sat down at the organ, though he had rarely played organ before the session. Wilson soon returned, surprised to find Kooper in the studio. You can hear the organ coming in just behind the other members of the band at many places in the song, to make sure he was getting the chords right. During recording, Dylan famously said, "Turn the organ up," and a classic rock organ part was born. The organ was the soon to be iconic Hammond B3, and Kooper later revealed that because it is a somewhat complicated instrument to turn on (hold one switch for a count, then flip the other switch)-- had it not already been done by someone else at the studio -- he probably wouldn't have figured it out on his own, and would never have manuevered his way in to the role as organist on these sessions.

Bob Dylan - Subterranean Homesick Blues This is a segment from D. A. Pennebaker's film, Dont Look Back (a documentary on Bob Dylan's tour of England in 1965). In the film, Dylan holds up cue cards for the audience with words from the song on them. While staring at the camera, he flips the cards as the song plays. Interestingly, there are intentional errors throughout the video. For instance, the song's lyrics say "eleven dollar bills," but the poster says "20 dollars". The video takes place in an alley behind The Savoy Hotel in London where poet Allen Ginsberg makes a cameo appearance. Tags: Bob Dylan Subterranean Homesick Blues Ginsberg |

This song is about a tradesman who meets a young woman who has stolen an item and passed it on to him (the lyrics of the song vary from place to place). The man then appears in court the next day, charged with stealing the item and is sent to Australia for doing so. This version by Christy and the Dubliners is from 1987.

Martin Carthy & Dave Swarbrick - I haven't told her. The 1967 Carthy-Swarbrick duo on the Peter Seller's song "I haven't told her, she hasn't told me" is without equal in the folk revival. One thing they were never known for was vocal duets, so this rarity from Danish TV may come as a surprise. Filmed (very badly it has to be said) in Dave Swarbrick's flat, the recording is a one-off.
