Customer Reviews of Home of the Brave
Home of the Brave This is one of my favorite CD's and I play it over and over. I like the Black Rose song and I also like track # 3. What is it called "Losing It" I think. It also has "It's time to go" which was sung by the old band member, Chris Byrne. This CD is a very good choice. Black Monday is great also.
Before Teenage angst, there was being Irish
What happens when some New York City Irish American firefighters feel more like playing Rock n' Roll? You get songs about immirgation at home, oppression back in the old country, lost romances and nights of drinkin' and fightin'. This is a good introduction to the New York-centric music of 'Black 47'. Track 4 is a long overdue musical tribute to the late great Paul Robeson, "The great are only great because we're down on our knees/rise my brothers and sisters/we were born to be free!" You'll find yourself replaying again and again the plantive wail from Track 6, "My black Rose he don't own you, so stay with me tonight...." Track 9 boasts a radio-playable (but don't hold your breath) steady beat and quirky lyrics while Track 12 is a rousing, radical, rebellious rap anthem of a generation fed up.
The Thinking Man/Woman's Punk/Rap/Whatever
Not being a punk or rap fan usually, I came to this band reluctantly, lured by the Irish connection and the first number, Big Fella. However, I found myself fascinated by the passion and intelligence of all the offerings. This is not just superficial noise--these songs are articulate, stirring (see Big Fella), very funny (Different Drummer) and perceptive. This is an excellent CD and could make a convert of you as it did of me.
