    Since 1962, The Dubliners have been enthralling audiences worldwide with their music and song. The strength and attractiveness of The Dubliners has always been in the personalities of the musicians who have made up this boisterous band of balladeers, from original members, Ronnie Drew, Barney McKenna, Luke Kelly, Ciarán Bourke, John Sheahan and Bob Lynch to the arrival at different stages of Jim McCann, Seán Cannon, Eamonn Campbell and finally the peerless Paddy Reilly.
    Produced By: David Donaghy
    Sound Engineer: Brian Nartey

    I, even as as a woman, worked at London Bridge Station and I used to request an Irish Breakfast and Builders tea! You needed the calories, for the energy! I mean you really needed it! So, double sausage, double rashers, double eggs, mushrooms, beans, tinned toms and bubble, perhaps a little black pudding and if you're lucky, white too, fried bread, heavily buttered toast and probably a quart mug of boiling hot tea😊😊😊

    Down the Glen came McAlpine's Men
    Dressed as party dancers.
    One in ten had served their time.
    The rest were frigging chancers.
    Written on the door of every building site toilet in London.

    Irish labourers are known as navvies, which is short for Navigators, these were the men who built England's railways and other essential parts of the infrastructure. The whole of England owes a debt of gratitude to the humble "Navvy"
