    R.I.P. Liam Óg O'Flynn. I couldn't have been more proud to be your nephew. Today we lost a legendary traditional Irish musical figure. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.

      Deepest sympathies to you and all Liam’s extended family and friends. Such a loss to Ireland and us all. A wonderful musician ❤️ I shed a few tears listening to the lovely tribute on RTE Radio 1 this evening. Ar dhéis Dé go raibh a h-anam

      Sorry for your loss but you must be so proud of such a musical genius and by all accounts a pure gentleman. He made those pipes sound so sweet and played with true passion and emotion. Yet he seemed so calm and composed while playing. We wont see his likes again in our lifetime.

    Beautiful. Mark, Liam and Sean. Liam was one of the best Uillean pipe players ever and former member of Planxty. Sean was one of the finest fiddlers and with The Chieftains. RIP Liam and Sean 🙏✨ giants of Irish music. 🇮🇪☘️

    Liam Og played his pipes and his whistle with the most heartfelt finesse ever heard. His playing made the ear feel as it had gone to Heaven! He was truly a force of inspiration to his fellow Uilleann Pipers. Thank you Liam ! Your beautiful contribution to TRAD will live on to inspire generations! Rest In Peace !

    O'FLYNN, THE KING OF THE PIPERS!!!!

    What a huge loss to Irish music, traditional music and good music, generally, sad, sad day indeed. A true, quiet spoken Irish gentleman, well loved, much respected, and hugely mourned.

  • @tomraftery2504

    RIP Liam Og O'Flynn. The world's greatest piper and the world's greatest guitarist! There never was a more appropriate time to play Mark's beautiful tune "A Piper To The End" See it here on UA-cam" Today we lost two great human beings, LIam and Stephen Hawkins - They made this world a better place.

    • @jackfletcher1000
      @jackfletcher1000 5 років тому

      I agree completely that Liam Og was the best piper in the world, but to call Mark the best guitarist in the world is akin to calling Rolf Harris the best artist in the world. I take it that you have never heard Segovia , John Williams or Julian Bream, to name but a few.

    • @paddyearly

      Putting Liam and Hawkins together? I believe that Hawkins was a crazy deluded atheist.

    • @jackfletcher1000
      @jackfletcher1000 5 років тому

      Who is Stephan Hawkins, is he perhaps the father of Jim Hawkins of Treasure Island fame. The was a chancer called Stephan Hawkings who wrote a load of cobblers, that the media picked up on because he was in a wheelchair, maybe thats who you mean

      No puedo asimilar que se haya muerto, me acompañó durante muchas horas su música, lo conocí en Coruña y es una persona fantástica, encantador, hablaba poco, no importa, te lo decía todo con la mirada, yo diría que es el músico más humilde que he visto, me emocionó mucho el vídeo del entierro, con un ataúd trenzado de mimbre, lo dice todo, así era él, humilde

    There's an exquisite version of 'Raglan Road' on YT Knopfer and O'Flynn and a line in it 'true gods of sound and stone'. I've loved the sound of O'Flynn's pipes for 40 year. A true god of sound, so sad you passed.
