Since 1962, The Dubliners have been enthralling audiences worldwide with their music and song. The strength and attractiveness of The Dubliners has always been in the personalities of the musicians who have made up this boisterous band of balladeers, from original members, Ronnie Drew, Barney McKenna, Luke Kelly, Ciarán Bourke, John Sheahan and Bob Lynch to the arrival at different stages of Jim McCann, Seán Cannon, Eamonn Campbell and finally the peerless Paddy Reilly.
Produced By: David Donaghy
Sound Engineer: Brian Nartey

My wife bought us tickets for this show for my birthday, it was a fantastic night

Bring back them all the long,short,and the tall? Irish /folk is maintaining a culture that will never end!!🤔✍️🍷🤪😀👍

[@philw245]

Irish labourers are known as navvies, which is short for Navigators, these were the men who built England's railways and other essential parts of the infrastructure. The whole of England owes a debt of gratitude to the humble "Navvy"

Down the Glen came McAlpine's Men Dressed as party dancers. One in ten had served their time. The rest were frigging chancers. Written on the door of every building site toilet in London.

He had lived through the songs and the times there based around👏

[@teresaapro2932]

I, even as as a woman, worked at London Bridge Station and I used to request an Irish Breakfast and Builders tea! You needed the calories, for the energy! I mean you really needed it! So, double sausage, double rashers, double eggs, mushrooms, beans, tinned toms and bubble, perhaps a little black pudding and if you're lucky, white too, fried bread, heavily buttered toast and probably a quart mug of boiling hot tea😊😊😊

[@TheDohped]

that built so much of this country

Legend ❤️ my father died in feb 2022 and this was his favourite song because of working in the docks in Dublin with his brother ❤️

[@jimblount9691]

Brilliant! --- and so many gone, god bless the Dubliners and St Pat! ---- England should apologize! Seriously!

[@Lumboh96]

As an Englishman who was raised on this music and having recently visited Dublin, I feel nothing but shame for the actions of my ancestors, I hope in the future we can work towards establishing a genuine relationship between our nations

WAIT WAIT WAIT...!!! Is Eamonn playing those blue notes during the solo??? Holy lord... He was always a rocker... RIP.

Sack the cameramen for missing it

[@jdion79]

@@athull08 to be fair it was the director... as a cameraman i can guarantee the cameraman knew where the gold was... it's always the boss that mucks up everything! haha!

This song always takes me back to the 60s when my wife flat shared with a lovely Irish girl and on a Friday night Desmond would turn up suited and booted in a Murphy’s lorry to take her to the Galtymore.

[@tonycarton8054]

reminds me of many nights in Biddy Mulligans in Kilburn High Road ,a great plaintiff exposition of emigration

[@Gommerell]

When was that the 80's ?

[@stuartwilkins9602]

Glad i got to see them in the day (sadly not quite early enough for Luke and Ciaran) and all thanks to my old chap who had loads of their vinyl

[@brianstevens7789]

I don't know why but I really like this!

[@teresaapro2932]

my late father and uncles were 'skinned back fusiliers!' I'm female and worked the 'Irish tumble dryer', hodded too! Got my lugs boxed too! so???

[@Mr.Derogatory316]

The older he got deeper his voice got and more slower in his singing

[@alexhickey5633]

Wasnt even the depth of his voice. It did that but got softer and more mellow. It used have a very hard and cold sound in the early days. It got softer, more mellow and deeper as he aged for sure

[@westernsharpie]

Too bad hey didn't zoom in on Eamonn, you could hear though he was picking some cool strings throughout the song.

[@koborkutya7338]

Why toning down the conclusion of the song? This is not a disco song you fade out at the end.

[@koborkutya7338]

just wanted to add to this, it annoys be big time, also at the start and at the end. One cool thing is the conclusion I love it and these guys just tone it down it like some disco shit from the 90s.

[@pele6660]

He did die like 5 years after this performance, probably got old and tired

[@koborkutya7338]

@@pele6660 he got seriously sick with throat cancer. One thing he was not is tired. He had a great interview like 6 month before he left, check that out, man was still at this spirits :) I wish I was that kind of tired at 73
