Im 73years old I was a trad irish singer I migrated to Australia when I was 13 I have followed our music for all of those years I lost my voice in 2012I used to sing this Andy was performing at the same festival the Port fairy festival in Victoria Australia ! he passed me by on the street he Smiled, but we never spoke I am thankful his songs and the Irish traditions still remain with me !! planxty was my favourite along with the Chieftains ! Christy Moore and The Dubliners Dubliners Clannad and all the amazing Irish performers ! I'm Happy I had this in my life ! x
OMG, this is 50 years ago! I remember hearing it back then, it sent shivers down my spine, and still does! This is so magnificent, has not lost its drive after half a century...
The first time I saw Planxty was back in the mid 70’s. I was living in Dublin at the time. I’ll never forget them singing this. When it segued from Raggle Taggle Gypsy to Tabhair Dom du Lamh, the entire audience leapt to our feet. We had never before heard anything like it.
Back when we were young and first a couple, my husband and I ran off from Ireland, working our way down through southern Europe and the middle east. We only had a 3 tapes -- Bothy Band, Paul Brady and Planxty- and a little walkman with speakers, but Planxty was the one we listened to most, and this tune was the theme for our travels. What fun it was being on the road and away from the usual life. But gypsy life is a hard life. We married, settled down, had some kids, bought a house and are well settled now. Still, this tune makes me ready to hit the road again!
Yes you described it perfectly and I just heard it for the first time ever the evening before St Patrick's Day. one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard and the instruments make me feel like I died and went to heaven and definitely gives me chills. I never knew of this band.
OMG!!! I just found this..... My daddy always sang this to me when i couldn't sleep, i remember singing along when it gets to "Raggle Taggle Gypsy ohhh" Wow... I always thought he made it all up but wow!!
For me always the best traditional Irish band. I was lucky enough to spend one of the best nights of life in O’Donoghues in Dublin and a couple of weeks later I was in O’Connor’s in Doolin. Just hitching round Ireland in 1980. Young free and single. Great times, great music. It’s January 2021 and I’m none of those things now, just want our lives back.
The old bards at their best,well sung by Christy- Liam,Andy and Donal who's having a great time,nice tight sound, if Liam's Uilleann pipes don't send a tingle through you there's something wrong with you,great stuff as they say.
the change is truly historic - a watershed moment in Irish music. It's now 45 years later that it has been recognised as being that transition moment. I grew up listening to that, I've a feeling that the audience in the Stadium that night they were witnessing history. The cheer that went up from the them gives strong sense of that.
I had the life-changing pleasure of seeing them together and in different permutations in pubs and other small Dublin venues as a young expat vagabond about town in '73 and '74, a time of astonishing musical energy and experimentation and variety and at the same time a reawakening of old traditions, when you could drop into a pub and see the likes of the great traditional piper Willy Clancy or the sternly Becket-like fiddle virtuoso Tommy Potts or their younger Irish-trad counterparts such as past-and-future Chieftains Matt Molloy and Sean Keane and Sean Potts, and then go to a rock concert headlined by Horslips or Thin Lizzy. But out of all this fabulous ferment, that original Planxty lineup & repertoire still can't be beat.
I was a performer of Irish music for over 40 years Planxty were my inspiration and loved by many they were great performers and musicians ! What amazing memories ! good music never dies !❤
my Grandfather, God rest him, Mick Fearon of Hilltown, in the Mourne Mountains, was a prolific accordionist, and although unable to read a note of music, he learnt in the ancient Irish tradition of playing by ear, and by jaysus he had some repertoire on him... sleep peacefully Granda. ❤
Just arrived home from Mayo and Galway ,toured nearly 1,000 kil from Castlebar,to Achill ,Bellmullet Downpatrick Head the 12 pins or Ben's of Connemara mts pure bliss our small Isle is so beautiful get out and explore the Wild Atlantic Way.!!!Listen to Planxty on your way round to add a bit of pleasure.!!!!!
Have loved Planxty and all the classic Irish stuff from this era. Spent many an hour drinking in Digbeth but being Birmingham born never understood why I have a love for the Irish. Two years ago whilst researching the family tree, I discovered my great grandmother was Irish born. Its amazing what those genes must contain : )
the first time I heard this, with the change, I cried. it was beautiful, I was 18 - I had been a lover of folk music since a young lad. now, at 50, I am on a train, heading to see friends, not heard this for a long time & it stirred up the same emotions. headphones in, minding my own business & the lady next to me just passed me a tissue. Planxty at their bloody finest. thank you for posting this gem.

Coming from a Travelling family this rings so true to me and makes me think of my Granda that I never met, but heard many amazing stories about his courage and bravery.
Many years ago now, my mother would sing this and other ballads on long trips in the car, to keep us children quiet. No portable video players in those Stone Age days.
I was at this concert, when Raggle Taggle Gypsy segued into Tabhair dom do Laimh, the entire audience jumped to our feet. We had never heard such a thing before.
I want to hear this tune played every day before and after my breakfast, before and after my cup of tea and snack at 10am, before and after by midday lunch, before and after my midday afternoon bottle of beer and sandwich, before and after my 7pm dinner, before and after nice cup of coco at 11pm and again before my bedtime or I will not sleep well

OK my third comment here (first one was 8 years ago)... confession - I was a Brit soldier in Northern Ireland in late 70's and I always played this..... still love it, still love ALL of Ireland.
Curious to know how you feel these days, having done the dirty work for a government that is now facilitating the invasion of your own homeland? I say this with no malice, same story in every western country. The British empire ruled by divide and conquer, same modus operandi now being used against you.

I had the life-changing pleasure of seeing them together and in different permutations in pubs and other small Dublin venues as a young expat vagabond about town in '73 and '74, a time of astonishing musical energy and experimentation and variety and at the same time a reawakening of old traditions, when you could drop into a pub and see the likes of the great traditional piper Willy Clancy or the sternly Becket-like fiddle virtuoso Tommy Potts or their younger Irish-trad counterparts such as past-and-future Chieftains Matt Molloy and Sean Keane and Sean Potts, and then go to a rock concert headlined by Horslips or Thin Lizzy. But out of all this fabulous ferment, that original Planxty lineup & repertoire still can't be beat.

God the amount of skill and practice it must take to play those instuments and also for Christy to remember the songs , they are so wordy
The most beautiful version of "Tabhair dom do laimh i've ever heard.A georgeous melody played with precision and passion.
It doesn't get any better
Sweet memories--swett music--remember the Albert Hall-supporting Steeleye Span--SUPPORTING!They knocked seven shades out of them!SUPERB!
