Was lucky to see Him live! He talked to people before the show and I got to talk to Him and get His autograph. A genuine and down to earth person! He will never be forgotten!

Sad that now Liam is gone also, given that last scene in this video with him. What a unique and wonderful combination of men. Grew up with their music and it still moves me.

The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem. Those boys are rocking in all over heaven, have a most brilliant time, playing gigs all over the place, plus every Saturday and Sunday evenings playing in Kingdom Hall, I have heard from a totally reliable source that Jesus never misses a concert at the weekends with a Guinness in hand and wearing an Arren sweater, Jesus looks like one of the very greatest boy band that this world ever witness

I am 46, and I listen to their music daily. They were giants in my house growing up, I remember my parents taking us to see them live as kids. I think it was at Bishop Ford, but I could be wrong. I still have Liam's autograph on the ticket stub from that show. It's amazing to me that they are all gone.

i don't know why but something about his voice or cadence in the video's opening reminds me of Gene Autry. Irish musicians had a profound effect on Appalachian & country-western music... love from the States ✌️

@@michaelcollins2319 Glad you weighed in! I am sure that there are,however the respect that one should have for their cultures has been hijacked by an agenda that reserves to itself what should be respected. Keep doing what you are doing,dont' let ANYBODY make you ashamed,embarrassed or disdainful of who you are or where you have come from. The Irish have had to put up with that for centuries!
