Not the Top 12 Dropkick Murphys songs, but my Top 12 Dropkick Murphys songs. Happy St. Patrick’s Day, you punks.
Back when I worked at the late WFNX in the late ’90s, I’d sneak songs from Do Or Die onto my show during the overnight hours. In the early ’00s, I introduced listeners in Albuquerque and Salt Lake City to the Dropkicks via Sing Loud, Sing Proud. And I was the DJ who debuted Tessie on WBCN during the magical 2004 Red Sox season. I love the guys, love the band, and love these songs.
If memory serves, the first time I heard or played Dropkick Murphys was from this split 7″ with the Ducky Boys on WRBB in 1996.
This is the song I used to sneak onto the playlist at WFNX. Maybe my all-time fave Dropkicks songs.
An all-timer of a song title.
One of DKM’s best takes on traditional Irish fare. I would play this for my son and sing along when he was a little fella and he would laugh and laugh and laugh.
Another Irish standard the lads just crush.
Are you picking up on the theme here? I love when DKM embrace their punk roots, but I adore what they’re able to do with the traditional fare.
Live on my radio show! I produced it, baby!
This one’s for Pixie.
If you’re old enough to have been there, you love this one, too.
See? The lads can craft a fine ballad, too.
“Trouble underground in Kenmore Square…”
Dropkick Murphys love when I play The Clash on the radio, too.
