The dates for Luke's last performance are mixed up. Some say this was 3 months before he died but it was actually only a few weeks before his death. This was on RTE's The Music Show in December 1983 and sadly only a month later on January 30th 1984 Luke passed away 🙏
Thank you thank you very much!! :-) New footage!!!!😄 Where did you hide this stuff??! And can you do a good word at RTE for the FULL concert of the Gaiety theatre in Dublin in may of 1979. I red that the whole first half of that concert is lost.... 😞 and even that 'second part' (of 50 minutes) is not fully available.
Yep. Sean at this point was officially part of the group as Luke was in a bad way near the end of 1983. Sean had before played with the group. He toured Scotland and England with them in 1980 when Ronnies' dad passed away. Then in 1982 when Lukes' illness was getting worse he again went on tour in Germany with them. Luke however despite his illness would still make appearances, most notably in Carre, which was I believe his final live performance with the group.
Born 93, found you guys a week ago. I've now listened to all your songs. Thank you.
I saw Luke Kelly at Fairfield Halls in Croydon not long before he died. I still grieve and mourn that marvellous voice. RiP Luke.
Absolutely love this song and Ronnie’s voice is perfect for it 💚💚☘️☘️Such a great group!!
Hello 👋🏼 how's your day going so far??
Just saw your reply. My day is going pretty good. How about you? I’m in Ct - USA. Where are you?💚☘️
I love him like I would have loved a father , though he's been gone for so many years from now,,,
Amazed that a channel like this is still uploading new content! Thank you!

Could you link their versions of waltzing Matilda and the wild colonial boy? I couldn't find them when i looked it up. thank you.
You cant buy it and they try to recreate it but its very hard
From the same night as Luke Kelly's last performance
Well spotted!

@@TheDublinersOfficial are their any other clips from this show? Regards.
This was filmed in June 1983 in RTÉ studios. Broadcast that November. Luke’s last concert was in Mannheim in November ‘83

Long may you continue upload unseen footage brilliant one of irelands best bands
I also love Luke singing High Germany, as an addition. 🙂✌️
almost 100k subscribers for a band that was formed way back in 1962.
that's because they are still the best group period
I saw a brief snippet of this clip played in the background on some documentary years ago - it's great to finally hear it in full.
I think this is the best song ever. The story, the lyrics, the vocals. Its got it all.
Truly a great group
Sorry there are not many left.
maybe theres more just undiscovered, not many people like these musics anymore sadly. But give it time and theres bound to be more groups like this
Love Luke’s accompaniment on this!!
thanks for the upload my gran and grandad met in world war 2 the war and my grans name was Margret

Classic track, I love Irish music!
Amazing as usual!
Brilliant as always from the Dubs. Anyone have the full concert?
Me bloody les ye lots. Please be keeping more music, would ye.
Fantastic song, Frank Harte played it in his radio presentation, Songs of work and protest. It always reminds me of my late father.
Fantastic song, I have all the Dubliners songs (so I think!) but not this one, thank you.
Thanks for listening
The Dubliners with ```Ronnie Drew are amazing.
Great song
Thank you thank you very much!! :-) New footage!!!!😄

When it’s good it’s good.
It must be one of Luke‘s last performances because Sean was already in the lineup. Very sad!
Yes it was
