Mr Liam Clancy great storyteller , had a wonderful life. Rest in Peace Liam and Tommy Makem and all the Clancy brothers.

At the age of 14 I won tickets to make and Clancy in Virginia , co Cavan....farmers ballroom. We sat in front row....hair on head 'n neck went needle like , I was Soaked in baptism of the power of music with soul at its core. 40 yrs later , and I'm eternally grateful to Liam and Tommy. May they both R.i.p.

a man that sang from his heart

All dead and gone now, true legends....

he was so talented and funny and still My favourite ballad singer. I loved the Clancy brothers and Tommy Makem and saw them many times in concert. I still play their LP's which I will treasure for ever

Brilliant man and entertainer. They don't make them like that anymore!

Soooooo well spoken . I agree, pure class.

Class an ill never forget them lads i always play there music every time im in t pub or my friends homes i get them to play them tunes respect from a true true Irishman 💚

Loved this, thanks for posting. Liam Clancy, the last man standing. And hopefully for a long time to come.

i love the way liam says it as it is

An era is now truly passed on. I'll raise my next jug of punch to you, Liam, and shed no more tears.

He never lost it, pure class all the way.

Missed this show thanks for posting excellent

Liam a poet and a legend liam taught bob all he knew wrote more songs than barney mc grew ❤❤❤

best ballad singer in world , my hero.

It’s a pity Liam wasn’t given a good interviewer. He could have talked for hours, and we’d have gotten some great wisdom.

Brilliant folk singers.Sadly missed.

Legend

He was some character

Well lads..could someone help me? The “John” fella Liam refers to in part one of this interview was actually my father. He dressed as a blue bunny on the show before Liam Clancy’s interview but I cannot find the video footage anywhere! I tried to get in contact with Rte about it a few years ago but didn’t get too far with it!

One off the greats

Great interview. Bah humbug to those dissing Ryan - I think he was fine. I saw Pat Kenny interview Liam when he published his autobiography and that was truly a horror show - no respect shown at all.

8:00 spot on. I wish he could have done the whole song.

Vaya con Dios Liam Clancy

LMAO GOTTA LOVE LIAM!!!!!!!!!

Requiescat In Pace, Liam (1935 -- 2009) There is not a day that passes that I do not listen to or view (video) a song performed by Liam!

They'll no doubt show this on the late late tonight

Did he say that someone tried to steal Tommy Makem's shoelaces? I understand the taking bits of the sweaters, but SHOELACES?

Hmm. I don't think that's it, but thanks for trying to help me figure it out.

Go gcoinní Dia i mbos A láimhe thú. RIP Willie

That Sheriff should have known better!

lol rap is just poetry. Some poetry is delivered better than others.

Liam is a class act but that host . . .

Whinger, the name of the song is "we want no Irish here"...if you search the term "We Want No Irish Here-Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem" on youtube, you can find the video

I am not familiar with the phrase he uses at 6:11. "Toting the" what? Does anyone know?
