Nanci had been living in Ireland about 50% of each year since 1989 until she pretty much settled in Nashville around ‘98. Man, this loss has me reeling. She was an enormous part of my musical tapestry since 1983, when I discovered Once In a Very Blue Moon. Rest In Peace, beautiful soul..

It has been a total shock and depressing news of her passing. A voice such as hers shall never be heard again. And we are all poorer for that.

Roger Daltry. What a star! Thank you for sharing this beautiful segment and bringing Nanci to shine her light on stage and bring her lovely voice to our ears. Beautiful collaboration. Thanks to all the artists involved in these works. Thanks to the Lord for bringing forward some voices of light in an industry that does all it can to wipe it out generation by generation.

OK, this is a very good Chieftains lineup! Martin Fay was still among them, The rascal Derek Bell also.The droll Sean Potts and the schoolteacherly Michael Tubridy had long since departed, as had Peadar Mercier. But Kevin Conneff and Matt Molloy were more than capable. And then...Nanci loved performing with them, except during the tour with that rascal Ashely MacIsaac, who wore nothing under his kilt and enjoyed displaying his package to the audience when he jigged. Not making this up -- inn Canada, we produce some real wild musicians. Ashley's just one of 'em. Apparently, Nanci was not amused when she had to go out on tour with them and Ashley. Well, don't know what he's doing now. He was a good step-dancer and fiddler, I'll give him that! Nanci -- words cannot express. The Chieftains -- love 'em forever Amen!

Nanci loves the Cheiftans but that guy bugged her a little, as a perfectionist, she looked over at him when he did not sing the correct notes/ harmony. And the fiddler caught her look and he briefly tilts head over at the idiot as if to say WTF did u just do to our Precious!!

@FrancoS59 3 жыл бұрын

I'm not so sure it went like this. It is evident that Nanci has a slightly "tight" look and it maybe that it reflected a psychological condition of her during that period, but I see that she smiles for her colleagues. And if by chance that boy had made a mistake and Nanci had looked at him to scold him, but do you know how I would like to be wrong for a look of Nanci??

downtime86 stars The point is that Leno flubbed it. Rolling Stone called her the queen of "folkabilly" which I guess is meant to be a play on "rockabilly". But Leno flubbed it and said "folkability" instead. Note the extra 't'.
