- The Dubliners celebrate their 25th Anniversary with a special TV show in 1987 including special guest Christy Moore. The Dubliners: Ronnie Drew, Barney McKenna, John Sheahan, Sean Cannon & Eamonn Campbell
This is my absolute favorite version of The Black Velvet Band. Christy and Sean compliment each other so well, with such different quality of voices, but both so powerful and in top form. And you can just feel the spirit of Luke through it all. Pure joy. Thank you Dubliners!
Yes I must have to agree with you so much i can watch that again and again

Well, I must be as far away from Belfast as you can get - some 12,000 miles. I'm the last of my family from Belfast, all my relations are dead and I'm the last from Belfast, Country Antrim. I still recall visiting my great grandfather in Crumlin before leaving Belfast in the 1950's and the tears from the relations at the wharf. I guess I'll see them all soon.
The Auld Fella loved this song, he could belt it out in fiddle, bango, piano accordion and voice...he never took a music lesson in his life, was too poor, and was judged worthy of manual labor for life, such was rural Ireland in the 50/60'ies...RIP Auld Man, you proved them wrong...+__
😊
.As an Englishman who's Gt Grandfather married an American Indian in 1882, I still feel the Irish in me.....the music is in my DNA.
Get over it. What you are don't matter. It's who you are.
Ronnie Drew looks genuinely happy in this
he definitely had an unmatched respect for Christy
This was played at the end of my Uncle's funeral a few weeks ago. He and his brother (my Dad) moved from Belfast to England in the 1950s, and while it's not quite the story of the song, the lines about being "far away from my friends and relations" having left Belfast were especially poignant. Fantastic version, with Christy Moore alongside them!
I love the full-circle story hidden in this video. The Dubliners (with Luke Kelly, minus Ronnie Drew) performed Black Velvet Band on The Talk Show in 1970; there's a video here on UA-cam. At 2:26 into that video, the camera focuses on a man in the crowd: 25-year-old Christy Moore. Here he is, 17 years later, filling Luke's shoes, while singing that very song! Wonderful performance, and a great coming full circle for Christy Moore!
with the beard, ya? that's quite a cool thing to know, thanks
At 2:26 it’s on the guy singing though
Ja.vad ska man säga. Så bra.
Fantastic
@@timelessadventurer that's at this video. He means one 17 yrs prior but don't know where the video is
Christy would’ve made an excellent Dubliner!! How young he is here.
This was recorded in March 1987. Christy was born in May 1945, so that would make him nearly 42
I love how in the last chorus Eamonn simply enjoys the sheer purity, talent and class in Sean’s voice. So do I - feel ya, my lad.
My father was a huge Dubliners fan. In 1996 I went with him to Eindhoven, Netherlands to a concert. I remember he bought the cd that was just released then, Further Along❤
My favourite Dubliners song ☘️
This is gold 💥
I absolutely love this song!🎶🎶🎶 Well done!🌹🌹🌹
This brings back such fond childhood memories ❤
Music doesn't get any better than this!!
It does not!
I've seen The Dubliners three times, the first time it was this lineup and I've seen Christy Moore once. I had no idea they had performed together but it makes sense I suppose, great performance!
My dad's favorite song. I was a baby. And I still tear up and bawl like a baby
My old buddy Tommy loved this song. Many pints amd many nights we sang this.
I remember in the 80s early 90s going to derry with me dar and getting on the piss with family in a boozer singing this and the whole gaff was up singing its up there with the best memories of my dar r.i.p kenny burke miss you so much xxx
Pure Magic !! From a distance of 420 miles and 33 years This incredible Live session ,a collection of legends.... on stage...caught on Camera ..Such a powerful and rare meeting ...still has the power to
pull me in and take me flying along a wild and woolly ride ..Enchanting the ears while punching and kicking the heart into submission.. In awe and Trembling I applaud !
Thanks to all those brave souls wherever they be
The song as such is great.
But this performance is just outstanding.
Best regards from Frankfurt. Birth place of Goethe. He would love you all.
Greetings from an Oz Celt
Christy is great but this a perfect example that the Dubs were with their unique voices a complete different league. Sean is a complete higher class within this song!
Pure class
Absolute gold.....thans boys
Love Christy Moore
You put your heart into your craft I love your sound! James Steven's Quinn Houston Texas USA .
Absolute class. 💚
I love this💕💕💕💕
I love this song
they ust dont make music like this anymore music you can feel in your heart in your soul
Fantastic! My Irish blood is singing
Perfection.
It was nice to see the accordion in there amongst the group that was playing , one of the most difficult instruments to play getting some air time, great job Mr cameraman !
Also nice to see there wasn't too many guitars as they can drown out the mistakes in vocals and other instruments playing like the fiddle.
Why do so many play the guitar these days as well as way back then, BECAUSE IT'S EASY compared to other instruments.
P.s Is that a young Steve Coogan and partner in the audience, at time index 2;55.. Wow he and she look really happy. ;(
Wondrous ❤❤❤
As a northern Irish loyalist I should disapprove of this music form these artists…. But you can’t deny they are good!! So many decent songs
“Should disapprove”, I’m glad you’ve got a more mature and worldly sense of being, now have a listen to the young lads The Tumbling Paddies, cheers
Always loved listening to Luke sing this but these boys make a fair fist of it
And Charlie Haughey in the audience. Thief almighty.
I would give my right arm for Christies voice.
Excellent HH
Glad you enjoyed it
Ronnie seems very animated and in good spirits
❤
My favourite Dubliners song. Me n me dad used to laugh about the lyrics. He warned me not to feed men strong drink. I said I’d better things to do with my money. He also warned me ffs, as though I needed telling, not to lure priests fffffsss. I made clear the donning of frocks and pretending to be Christian was not a turn on. Not my actual words to him of course.
Best version. Christy Moore makes it.
How come when they say “I thought her the queen of the land” people in pubs during St Patrick’s day say “AND SHE WAS”???? I am not Irish and heard this at a pub here in the USA
Great. Cannot get enough of the Dubliners. Could someone tell me the guy in the black suits name. ?
