We saw Val in Cork in the Everyman theatre he was 70 at the time but his rapport with the audience and his lovely relaxing vòice always made me happy and still do years later. A wonderful gift

The main reason I gave this a "thumbs up" is that KZfaq doesn't allow a "double thumbs up" .

I think folk songs have been banned from mainstream TV these days, a shame. These guys are giving it everything, miss Val and all the lads. One day.

i heard an interview w pete seeger--lg time ago--about the time he was begining to bustout of the anti-communist blacklist. interviewer asked pete whether he thought folk music was 'dying out?' pete laughed, then said; "folk music is the people's music. like the people, it rises and gets pushed back, but its the music of the people, their struggles, so it never can die! the authorities try every way to surpress it, but the people's music lasts as long as the people." ;

Were these guys paid by Aran Woollens to wear this stuff? My mum had a beautiful Aran coat she knit. In some hotel in the 60s some American tourist offered to buy it off her. She said no. Of course. I wore it in the eighties. No idea where it went though. Not seen it since then.

@jamesdolan4042 4 жыл бұрын

I wonder how did Tommy Makem initially team up with the Clancys? Today, I think they would be regarded as "stage Irish" today, but in the 1960s they would regarded as colourful characters from the otherwise dull Ireland still emerging as a nation.

Mighty Craic in Ireland in the 60"s James and 50's as well. Some media types would have us believe everything is great now and terrible back then. Its an Irish times and RTE types view of History to suit their own agenda . These days we've blended into everyone else. With damn all unique culture of our own.
