    Paul Brady's rendering of Arthur McBride is in a class of it's own and would make rebels of all who hear it! I never tire of watching and hearing this performance.

    How does anyone memorise so many lyrics and play so brilliantly on guitar? I love listening to Paul Brady.

    Ah the Lakes of Pontchartrain! Pure beauty as Paul Brady sings it and both play it. I drink a health to both Andy and Paul...

    Like pure mountain honey dripping from the honey best hive, like the best wine or whiskey that you ever tasted, Andy Irvine & Paul Brady and singing voices of very rarest beauty and stunning quality, the same goes for their instrument playing, their songs, songwriting, and storytelling. their music would be greatly appreciated in any land their music is played, they have got whole-world appeal

    Can we just appreciate how skilled Paul Brady is at guitar. The stuff he plays may sound easy compared to other stuff but that hybrid picking is absolutely no joke at all.

    • @gjmac7247
      @gjmac7247 4 роки тому +8

      There sure is some magic at work with that right hand. No effects or distortion to hide any mistakes, every time I've tried hybrid picking it is like trying to pat my head and rub my stomach at the same time.

      I admire his flatpicking skills very much. Does anyone know what brand Paul is playing? I don't see anything on the headstock.

    Has to be one of the best recordings of the highest quality musicianship ever made in this country- hard to think of any duo in our history of such quality. The playing on Plains of Kildare is stunning.

    Arthur McBride (from 17:10 on) is an absolutely extraordinary anti-recruitment song from the early 19th century. That whole world of resistance is ignored in the propaganda: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_McBride

    How lucky were they. Sitting there. I'd given anything to see them live..
    Just as lucky to be sitting here listening 40 odd years later 🍀🍀🍀🍀❤️

      I saw Andy Irvine solo but sadly not Paul Brady. Irvine was brilliant! I also saw him doing a Q and A at the same festival. He was a very likeable and intelligent character.💕

    The delicate, floral delivery of mary and the soldier compared to the bold and brassy projection of arthur mcbride, nothing left unconsidered, everything intentional, such wonderous detail. the best folk music is as real and detailed as nature, and beautiful thing happens when the detail outfathoms our focus, instead of claiming victory, and moving on, we are warmed, left only to wonder at the depths of what we are hearing. And remark how it is only people, practiced just like anyone could, who can conjure such blissful suspension!

    5:45 shows that you can indeed headbang over one of the tightest time changes you'll ever hear, and it would be in a traditional folk song with a got dang bouzouki.
