    I think this was quite like where Ronnie said that "Luke's a Communist, you know", and I love it to this day, just fort the comedic effort! I've seen documentaries, and I've watched MUCH later stuff on RUclips! But Luke Kelly had a very firm communist foundation from where he saw his life! I'm so sad that he died so early, even if I didn't agree with him at the time!
