Free Derry Fleadh

In August 1969 some of the people behind Free Derry such as Eamonn McCann organised a fleadh ceoil to lift the community's spirits. It featured some of Ireland's greatest musicians. Tommy Makem talks about performing Four Green Fields and the way in which the song affected the crowd. From the programme 'No Go: The Free Derry Story'.
