The legendary Barney McKenna. Saw him many times with The Dubliners in the South of England. Just noticed John Sheahan with a Guitar, never seen that! All of of them brilliant and only John left now.
Oh no! I can't believe all of the original performers of that marvelous band have now gone. I had so hoped to see this man live one day. Now that chance is gone forever. May he rest in peace and let's hope the band can now reunite in Heaven for that's where he has surely gone!
What an absolute hero. The world's a lot emptier a place without you Barney. I'd the lads in the great beyond didn't know what hit them when you Luke and Ciaran rocked up the bar, and started belting out the tunes like the old days. Rest in Peace Mr. McKenna.
A pure Genius with the Banjo, so glad I heard him live a several times. Never forgotten, for his playing and his Humour (Barneyism). The world has lost a real treasure a few years ago. RIP
The Best Banjo Player fore Every Times.I saw him 3 Times in Duisburg,this was Amazing and Unforgettabel Evenings.He is the best for ever and ever and ever!I Love this man,and i'm so so sad that he died and i had not the chanc to see him One more Time!Forever in my Heart!
I don’t think I’ve read through a comment section before where every comment is basically in agreement with each other (that this man is legend and loved by all and will be missed) Even the trolls wouldn’t dare disrespect this man God bless your eternal soul Barney)
Nothing beats a Barney performance. Listened to this performance, loads and loads time . The late Great Barney always made it look easy. The Master at work, always in charge of his instrument. Haven’t said that , he was a great inspiration. You will see lot’s that aspire to the Great Barney’s pace and stile .None come close.
Every year on then I come back here to listen to this beautiful song. It's amazing how it makes your day, jumping all around like nothing else matters.
Barney, don't worry, you are in Heaven. It's just youtube playing here. Carry on Barney, make sure the lads are alight, and aright! And no messing up there!!
i met them a couple of years ago in Hamburg, lucky to stay in the same hotel as them, the Raddison, and loved the chat we had with them all,and we were back stage to meet them . made my stay worthwhile. Ray
What a legend. He didn't play the banjo. He owned it.
RIP Barney - The worlds best Tenor Banjo Player ever...
Pure genius. None better. Never will be. RIP Barney, you are a legend. Brilliant
Best tenor banjo player I've ever heared and great human being also
Barney McKena absolutely an irish legend.

The legendary Barney McKenna. Saw him many times with The Dubliners in the South of England. Just noticed John Sheahan with a Guitar, never seen that! All of of them brilliant and only John left now.

He could certainly make that banjo sing.
Unrivalled anywhere.
Rip Barney great stuff
AMAZING
Unfiltered cigarettes Big scruffy beards and Guinness that's what gave them that unique sound, but mostly the Guinness.
Legends all of them.
Legends each and everyone of them.
I think it is amazing talent

Barney you are the greatest banjoman ever love you
Great!!!!!!!!!!
The clapping did my fucking head in...
Brilliant 3 man solo as only the 'Dubs' could carry off *O))
Very good solo.I think that banjo is very difficult to play because often it is necessary to play very quickly
in america we call it a feature
or trio
@@feelinghealingfrequences7179 search banjo metal on youtube

He bought that hat in Norway the badge on the hat is the winter Olympics badge. B
