Notes

Apparently this album was recorded in 1983, but not released until 1985. According to Christy Moore's website: "This album came about as the result of a trip I made to H Blocks. I left the Falls Road in a van that was clapped out. It was used daily to ferry prisoners families to and from the camp. I got the idea to try and raise money for a new van and that was the purpose of this album. WEA got to hear about it and sequestered it under terms of contract which is how it became Warners album which I had never wanted it to be."
