Emigration
- For two centuries, Ireland's biggest export
has been its people. Oppression, deportation and
famine drove them to the new lands of USA and
Australia. Even after independence was won, the
sons of her heros travelled to England in search
of work. This album is packed with stories of
emigration, nostalgia and homecoming.
