as long as your listening to the Clancy Brothers it doesnt matter how many bottles you have consumed; Im only 22 years young and these lads are a constant in my car playing and a constant in my life... My only regret is that I wasnt born 35 years earlier to see these lads live....
They don't make them like this anymore this reminds me of my dad and uncle. My uncle was always the story teller of the family. My uncle even ran the Irish echo paper in New York. Thanks for sharing this.
Kiera you're right...they remind me my grandfather...great storyteller and true gentleman passed away a year ago...I was his favourite granddaughter and loved spending my time in the pub with him since I was 8...the difference is that my grandfather was from Durres (Albania) and so am I
God bless the Clancy brothers and Tommy Makem. What a bunch of great entertainers. God bless Wilma Wade, librarian at Central High School in 1961 who turned me on to Tommy, the Clancys and Celtic music.
I was there that evening for their concert and what a grand evening it was, I too perform these songs, but alas these boyos know how to deliver a song and story. And with these videos they live on for a new generation to discover. Slainte!
I was at the University of Maine where the Maine State theater resides. I could not get in, so MPBN, (East Maine PBS affiliate,) broadcast this live for those who could not get into that packed house. It was an awesome show.
i just love these guys! They have great songs, they have a wonderful connection with the audience, and 4 guys singing together really captures the spirit of the songs better... Great, they are so great.
One of thing things I will always hold dear was when I got a chance to shake their hands in about '93 and say yours were the first songs I ever remember hearing. Hope it meant as much to them as it did to me.
My Grandfather is currently on his death bed, so the hospice lady says. Now this song brings me such joy, such warmth in the heart that I'll bring a bucket down full of the Water at his feet. Tears. . .
I do not know how many bottles of alcohol I have consumed listening to these guys! I am afraid I will become an alcoholic because of Clancy brothers! (AND the beautiful Irish folk songs)
His description of an Irish wake is the standard by which all other descriptions must be judged. Now when the gentleman starts reciting James Joyce, don't panic. You need to either be dead drunk or possess an IQ of about 500 to make sense of James Joyce. If you can, just sit back and watch and listen to that most lovely Irish brogue, its sound and cadence. It has been said that the Irish brogue is second in sweetness only to the sound of angels singing, so just watch and listen.
im 18 and am an alcoholic because of these guys...and honesty..im drunk right now and i dont care if i need help..these guys make me happy and thats all i need!
Very infamative, very rich in the soil of his story, Master Vinegar, Mister Vine! A quibble: he mispronounces "imarginable." He says "imaginable." "Imarginable" has that wonderful recombinant technique Joyce loved: an imagination without margins = imarginable.
The women started the fight, is that a reference to the ancient myths of feminine chaos like Athena and Eve, which resulted in the downfall of man? Or am I just imagining things
well said my friend,I say this to you as a 46-year-old Irish man living under British occupation in a part of the North of Ireland known as South Derry or in Gaelic/Irish,Doire. But if you look on a map you will notice it is now called "Londonderry" We have tried our best to get it officially changed back to Derry, as 95% of the citizens of our once proud county wish for. But, ah, our wishes mean nothing to our occupiers. Britain is probably the most hated nation on the face of this once great Earth that we all should share, followed closely by Israel and the war-hungry USA. British actions in the past are the cause of the vast majority of disputes occurring today across many continents. These disputes will go on and on and on until each country has their sovereignty reinstated. I say this without any hatred for you, my friend. As I am sure you agree,I am merely stating a fact. The unfortunate truth is,,, like yourself, the ordinary British people never ever started a conflict.It has always been the blood hungry elites of your once good nation.Just do your best to persuade your rulers to give back what they plundered and pillaged.Britain has stolen any wealth theese peaceful nations had.Surely,the only reason for holding on now is purely a power trip!We should not forget how simple it was for Britain to take all theese nations.IIt was not because Britain had some mysteriously great warriors.No,it was because the nations that Britain plundered and pillaged had no armys!Before Britain(and now in the modern times,America) there was no need for an army to protect its citizens.Now this once great planet that we live on is awash with armys.Does that not say something? well said my friend,I say this to you as a 46-year-old Irish man living under British occupation in a part of the North of Ireland known as South Derry or in Gaelic/Irish,Doire.

No disrespect to Robbie and Bobby, but the sound just isnt quite right, is it? There was only one line-up that really worked and that was Pat and Tom with Liam and Tommy.
see when i die im puttin it in my will Old school irish wake and bury me with a bottle of whiskey and a 6pack of guinness seeing as im probably goin to hell ill take my own beer
I remember the good version, back when Billy McGee sang it! That was back when a song really told a real true story you could sing along to, and not just a bunch of bawdyashical whimsicalsjwism nonsense.
This is great, this song was played at my funeral
awesome rendition, this is the song I want played at my passing.
The greatest words ever spoken, before one of the greatest bands even plays a note. Happy St. PADDY'S DAY to all from Boston Sláinte!

Yeah, but don't be driving after all those bottles!

Great, they are so great.
Such a great song 🤣🍻🍺
One of thing things I will always hold dear was when I got a chance to shake their hands in about '93 and say yours were the first songs I ever remember hearing. Hope it meant as much to them as it did to me.
Love the tune! Love the sweaters! Love the Clancy Brothers!
first time I got a few clues to Finnegans from this reading! All in all a brilliant performance

Never gets old! Love them!
Something for the soul, just loved it,with thanks from Israel.
The only reason for all our troubles is that we and the Arans cannot drink properly.

I am a non-Irish, I read both "Dubliners" and "Finnegan Wake" and simply love them ... there are more difficult books to read!!!!
sadly I have only recently discovered The Chance Brother's. I would have loved to see them live.
Toss the feather

im 18 and am an alcoholic because of these guys...and honesty..im drunk right now and i dont care if i need help..these guys make me happy and thats all i need!
"Traditional Irish wake" Paddy describes it perfectly!
Great opening dialogue, too.
Amazing !!
They say it was the drop that killed him!
Nope, twas the sudden deceleration and the ground tried to catch him!
Adam Bryant you're right, it isn't the fall that kills you, it's the sudden stop at the end.
The drop of whiskey
Sorry man it was last June that Liam Clancy was performing. I went to see him at the 'Driocht' in Blanchardstown, Dublin
GREAT!!!
love it
God bless the Clancy Brothers
Ishkabar ? So that's what The Door's "Jim Morrison" was singing about.
"Oh take me, To the next, Ishkabar"
Spelled Uisce Beatha. Irish has weird ways of spelling.

It says in the Apocrypha that Mary left a jug of whiskey in the tomb and that's the real reason for the resurrection.
