Liam Clancy & Tommy Makem on The Late Late Show 1988

[@maryfox7440]

I have very fond memories of Tommy Tommy Macon and Liam Clancy performing in Toronto Canada during the 70s and 80s. The Irish music was amazing during this time thanks

[@CRyan71]

Such a pity that time takes these legends from us.

[@lindadunn964]

I am from Prince Edward Island!! We were great fans of these two!!! My daughter went to Charlottetown to see Tommy with her six year old daughter the y went back stage to get his autograph. They didn't get but made for a great memory and a laugh!!

Growing up in Maine with Irish ancestry. I have gotten into Makem and Clancy a bit lately, but had no idea of the Garden Song - my first thought was ‘that’s really catchy’. I almost fell out of my chair when I learned that it was written by Mainer David Mallett (whom I was aware of but not super familiar with), as was the second song played here. What an awesome goodbye performance, as it were - and Mr. Byrne was an awesome host.

When I first visited my mum's, Pomeroy, CoTyrone, childhood home in 1964, we had literally 100s of relatives to visit. In every home, there was a picture of President Kennedy, an accordion, a Jim Reeves lp and several Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem lps.

Wonderful

They don’t make men like these anymore. Listening is a bittersweet experience.

[@BrianReeves2]

I was fortunate enough to see these gentlemen perform at NTIF around this time.

[@vanatlas1220]

When i die i will see these two at the Gates of heaven and everything will be alright.

[@keithhughes3419]

Lovely. You can actually hear an extra instrument playing on the first tune - maybe a mandolin.

[@michaelosullivan1892]

Brilliant ☘️

[@gerardmorris3290]

Brilliant

[@robertflint2549]

I think I like Liam and Tommy more as a duo than the four lads together. Right characters they were as well as fine musicians.

[@tonyflanagan4259]

You were a great Television and Radio man Gay, but Canada is in North America.

[@holyglitch1126]

How would you call the cap style liam wore? Cord cap?

[@ypcfl58]

And the name of the fiddle solo ?

[@ypcfl58]

What is the name of this lovely song ?

[@georgianwindow]

Has anyone seen Liam without that hat

[@oliveroneill1388]

Not relevant.

[@iyou810]

yes a few times. sure its relevant if you wondered😁

[@KesslerWatsonMusic]

He went pretty badly bald which is why he wore the hat (my opinion)

[@tomobedlam297]

Isn't Liam the spitting image of Tucker Carlson! 😮

[@jrpro5195]

Ever put butter on a pop tart?

[@cpndSimyule]
