Man I would love to see David Kincaid live.
Such an underrated artist! Love to Mr. Kincaid from Saudi Arabia! 🇸🇦🇮🇪🇺🇸
David Kincaid is perhaps the best Irish-American singer of our time. Thanks for the upload!
He's absofuckinglutely awesome.
On the 21st of July, beneath a burning sun,
McDowell met the Southern troops in battle at Bull Run.
Above the Union vanguard, was proudly to be seen
Beside the starry banner, old Erin´s flag of green.
Col. Corcoran led the 69th on that eventful day,
I wish the Prince of Wales were there to see him in the fray.
His charge upon the batteries was a most glorious scene,
With gallant New York firemen and the boys that wear the green.
In the hottest of the fire, there rode along the line
A captain of the Zouave band, crying, "Now, boys, is your time."
Ah, who so proudly rides with the bold and dauntless men?
´Tis Thomas Francus Meagher of Erin´s isle of green.
The colors of the 69th, I say it without shame,
Were taken in the struggle to swell the victor´s fame;
But Farnham´s dashing Zouaves, that run with the machine,
Retook them in a moment, with the boys that wore the green.
Being overpowered by numbers, our troops were forced to flee.
The Southern black horse cavalry on them charged furiously,
But in that hour of peril, the flying mass to screen,
Stood the gallant New York firemen with the boys that
wore the green.
Oh, the boys of the 69th, they are a gallant band,
Bolder never drew a sword for their adopted land.
Amongst the fallen heroes, a braver had not been
Than you, lamented Haggerty, of Erin´s isle of green.
Farewell, my gallant countrymen who fell that fatal day.
Farewell, ye noble firemen, now mouldering in the clay.
While blooms the leafy shamrock, whilst runs the old machine.
Your deeds will live bold Red Shirts and boys that wore the green.
Your deeds will live bold Red Shirts and boys that wore the green.
I'd love to do a reenactment with David and have this happen in the camp. That would be an awesome
He's an awesome singer and great historian!

Does anyone know if David Kincaid has a FB page? Can't seem to find one, but there are a lot of David Kincaid's.
+Tulleymore : He has a fb side, David A Kincaid, also look for he´s band, "The Brandos", Outstanding!
FB page is a David Kincaid
what kind of guitar is he playing here?
It's a guitar body strung like an Irish Bouzouki
He is a historian, too?
nope
Yes
In a manner of speaking... if I understand correctly, he did some good research into the songs of the period in order to get the material for his albums. You don't have to have a history degree, teach classes, and write books to be a historian ;-).
@@renardgrise So true.
