first time I ever saw Donal Lunny on that side of stage. Awesome musicians and music

[@jeffdoty1262]

So...So...good. Just a bit sad to see them without Kevin and especially Paddy. Good tunes! Good to see Matt cutting up. Donal is always a hoot to watch![RIP Michael]

[@brianmccombe9492]

Shame Paddy K I'snt There.Wud have been "The Cherry On The Cake". Simply the Greatest Irish Trad Band Of ALL TIME BAR NONE 🙂

[@liamg353]

Got to be the greatest Traditional band of all time.

[@mariesprayberry4139]

Why, why, didn't Gradam Ceoil give us the finish and the band/audience reaction on this? But, otherwise, this is marvelous. I do wish Tommy had cracked a smile, but everyone else seems to be having a whale of a good time. (In particular, I wish I enjoyed my work 10% as much as Donal enjoys his.) And RIP Tommy and Micheal. Two of the greats.

[@susie360]

They never lost it. Michael was generous to his fellow players, a humble man, RIP

[@nakulagoodine6072]

I love that you can see so vividly the difference in approach between the fiddlers. RIP Tommy peoples. Definitely My favorite musician of all time.

[@bernhardlohr4662]

SUPERB !! Simply very good Irish Folk!! Love It !! Einfach Wunderbar !! B.L.,germany

[@TG4TV]

Vielen Dank

[@ibassnote]

They look like they are slightly unrehearsed and kind of joking at each other when someone makes a mistake. So funny to watch. But what a sound. I will never get over how great they are. Great bands are magic and this is one of the greatest ever.

[@williefinn4932]

never lost it. revolutionised trad music, continuing the groundbreaking work of o riada, chieftains and planxty. all really enjoyed it.

[@mccypr]

Awesome! The Band that got me into Celtic music. Thanks! Happy holidays! 🤶🎅🏻🙂😎

[@nixieNICLA]

[@tk33wave]

thank you for sharing. -> Is there more of the Bothys available of that evening in 1999 ? It is so nice to see Micheal having so much fun, (r.i.p.). The Bothys are one of my all time favourite groups, ever!

[@andrealewis3638]

Wonderful.

[@jeanfrancoisquillien8174]

With Planxty, the best Irish Folk Band of the 70-80ies...

[@HEADSUPBERKELEY]

Strings galore on the opener and the wind. Lovely tunes thanks

[@TheAtticradio]

Amazing sound. Dunno is there any one thing thats driving it but it’s fab. That sound sets them apart to other bands. Moving hearts had a similar distinctive unique sound. I suppose thats that’s the trick to create.

[@johnnymolloy3813]

This kind af music inspires the irish to stand up tall.

[@lengwo3168]

Great and somehow refreshing music !!!

[@michaeljordan3422]

Was The Best Band In The World

Tá an ceól go hálainn...

[@pjcurtis2476]

IAre they not missing a piper here?

[@CRyan71]

Well it's obvious the camera person had something against women. Never once did a close up of Triona. Can someone explain the difference in both the violin players? The playing(bows) is not identical. Paddy Glackin on left appears to be playing faster but that can't be. Is he throwing in more notes maybe than the other?

[@SuperMikado282]

Why don't you just listen to the music?

[@CRyan71]

@@SuperMikado282 I'm intelligent enough to listen to the music and make an observation. You obviously aren't.

[@JDiaz21]

Kevin Burke Amazing 🎻

[@hicranaktas8767]

Prefect prefect.🤗🤗🤗

[@ianstock7952]

Awesome, even without Paddy or Kevin

Ah but what a pleasure to see the original fiddle player with the band - Paddy Glackin

[@JustFiddler]

where's kevin?

[@tonyoneill9696]

Name of second tune ?

[@couscousboulette-f3y]

Please what's the tittle of this song ? Thank You

Prehaps one of our subscribers might be able to help us in identifying this piece of music. You might also be interested in our new trad channel kzbin.info/door/gfCO6Y3KV1qX8YVFj8N4TQ dedicated solely to Irish traditional music, song and dance. Go raibh maith agat.

2 traditional Irish reels : "The Green Groves Of Erin / The Flowers Of Red Hill" [ also known as "The Clogher" ]. This pair of reels was Track #2 on the band's first LP record released in 1975.

@@douglashadden2172 thank you

[@haddockpaddock]

Anyone know why Paddy or Peter weren't there on pipes?

[@artlorigan6604]

Or Kevin Burke ?

[@johnnymolloy3813]

They threw the head up and went on the Ripp

[@manuelreen]

where the f is Paddy Keenan??

[@cahillgreg]

Without Paddy - there's a gaping hole

[@nakulagoodine6072]

Who else noticed the bazuki player is a lefty

[@marco51ish1]

He is Donal Lunny, one of the most important composer and player in irish traditional music.

[@SuperMikado282]

None of us......we are all blind. 🤣

[@michaelhanrahan5349]

Most, if not all BB fans know that this is not really the Bothy Band. Nuff said.

[@renderizer01]

Because Paddy Keenan's not in it? But then we've got Paddy Glackin instead, so...

[@antonsvane6939]

Well that’s completely wrong… only lacking Burke and Keenan Jesus
