Jim McCann - Will Ye Go Lassie Go

Jim McCann was a member of The Dubliners from 1974 to 1979. Returning to his solo career he had a huge hit with the song ‘Grace’ and released an album of love songs by the same name. This is one of the songs taken from that album.

For my father ❤️ A beautiful and gentle man. He was buried two days ago and my uncle sang this at the graveside. It was the most poignant and beautiful moment. 100s of people harmonized during the chorus. It was an emotional send off. ❤️ Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis ☘️

We are so lucky to be in the Era that Jim McCann existed, and sang... He is 'SO' much better now, than when he was with "The Dubliners".... NO comparison!!!!! His voice was so pure and beautiful !!!!!!!!

[@louisestaats234]

So pure. So clear. So beautiful. So lucky we are to watch/hear this rendition.

Lovely, and such perfect timing give that today is St. Patrick's Day.

[@robertialsobel6015]

It's Scottish!?

[@skookumchuck2556]

@@robertialsobel6015 This is a variant of the Scottish song "Braes of Balquhither", but this version was adapted and written by an Irishman, so I'd say both countries have their claims to it.

[@robertialsobel6015]

@@skookumchuck2556 Yes. I later read it is a Scottish/Irish ballad.

[@kevinyoung4616]

Two songs Jim McCann sang better than anyone else .This one and Grace . He passed on much to soon .

[@louisestaats234]

Agreed. Amazing rendition.

Thanks for listening

[@dreisternehof]

@@TheDublinersOfficial O I miss them All! What a repertoire of wonderful songs, what great, strong and also sensitive voices, what excellent instrumental accompaniment...

[@louisestaats234]

This has to be the best version of this song. It's a sincere heartfelt proposal. Leaves us pondering. Did she say yes?

[@beybarys]

Wonderful.... I'd "come in" he was the "romantic part" of the Dubliners... And he did it masterly... Unforgotten...

[@peterkavanagh9106]

I always felt joking the Dubliners was a detriment to his career. Listen to his voice and guitar plucking. He did not need them. He was gifted in his own right

Now Here is a voice to fit the song to a good depth. Everyone got a favorite or two and Emmit Cahill is good, Tommy Makem is tops and the McGrath's . Add Jim McCann.
