My son has just discovered The Dubliners at age 14, he plays accordion and loves Luke Kelly. He has taught himself Dirty Old Town and Irish Rover by ear, he was taught Black Velvet Band by his teacher and is one of his favourites. Fantastic band x

[@rafathebroken9083]

This is the best gift that you can get! to grow up on the dubliners!!!

[@alexbowman7582]

It’s thought that musical ability is partly genetic and partly from music before the age of 7 which is why I think the reason so many English rock bands were successful in the 60’s/70’s was due to to the widespread pianos in homes.

Im 26 and love irish music and i'm not even from Ireland lol

I love the dubliners and im close to your sons age, you cant beat the Dubliners, rare breed of men they were. 💚

So much talent on that stage!

Es gibt Musik, die zeitlos ist. Irische Legenden sind die Dubliners und sie haben sich eingetragen in die Geschichte der Musik als eine der besten Bands, die es je gab und immer gegeben haben wird.

[@musicbruv]

I would never had listened to songs like this years ago but we all change as we get older and I now love Irish songs.

Congrats, be proud for yourself, the dubliner are just a classic.

Did not go mad over the Dubliners in the past, But during Covid 19 with 5 months to spare now think they are possibly the BEST Irish group of all time may they all rest in peace

On the fourth of July eighteen hundred and six We set sail from the sweet cove of Cork We were sailing away with a cargo of bricks For the grand city hall in New York 'Twas a wonderful craft, she was rigged fore-and-aft And oh, how the wild winds drove her She'd stood several blasts, she had twenty-seven masts And we called her the Irish Rover We had one million bags of the best Sligo rags We had two million barrels of stones We had three million sides of old blind horses' hides We had four million barrels of bones We had five million hogs, had six million dogs Seven million barrels of porter We had eight million bales of old nanny goats' tails In the hold of the Irish Rover There was old Mickey Coote who played hard on his flute When the ladies lined up for his set He was tootin' with skill for each sparkling quadrille Though the dancers were fluther'd and bet With his sparse witty talk he was cock of the walk And he rolled the dames under and over They all knew at a glance when he took up his stance And he sailed in the Irish Rover There was Barney McGee from the banks of the Lee There was Hogan from County Tyrone There was Jimmy McGurk who was scarred stiff of work And a man from Westmeath called Malone There was Slugger O'Toole who was drunk as a rule And fighting Bill Tracey from Dover And your man Mick McCann from the banks of the Bann Was the skipper of the Irish Rover For a sailor it's always a bother in life It's so lonesome by night and by day 'Til he launch for the shore and this charming young whore Who will melt all his troubles away All the noise and the rout, swillin' poitín and stout For him soon the torment's over Of the love of a maid, he's never afraid An old sot from the Irish Rover We had sailed seven years when the measles broke out And the ship lost its way in a fog And that whale of the crew was reduced down to two Just meself and the captain's old dog Then the ship struck a rock, oh Lord what a shock The bulkhead was turned right over Turned nine times around, and the poor old dog was drowned I'm the last of the Irish Rover.

[@janetcallanan7020]

Was fortunate enough to see them multiple times such lovely times sad those days are forever gone but grateful for the lovely craic

i would have loved to have seen this back in the day with my parents and grandparents beingg irish, i now show my children their irish roots. Shame that the bands that dont keep to their own roots these days. God bless the dubliners

[@peterdavies2960]

1:51-3:40 I can’t get over Eamonn Campbell’s dance across the stage on the solo 🥲 he looks much older for his 50s in that year. Can’t believe he was only 70 when he died…😢 (like Tchaikovsky had white hair and was only 53 when he died)

Can anyone explain why Eamonn Campbell didn't sing ?!

[@jackcarter5101]

You mean why he didn't sing in general? I've often wondered that myself, although he did sing a lot with The Dublin Legends, the post-Dubs band. He had a lovely voice, like a slightly smoother Ronnie Drew.

[@MrBelthasar]

@@jackcarter5101 Yes! If I saw him singing at The Dubliners a lot, it was once or twice. In Dublin Legends he sings Ramblin Boy, Dirty Old Town and others. I really wish he had sung on this 40 year old show, it was very special.

[@jackcarter5101]

@@MrBelthasar He did Seven Drunken Nights with the Legends as well. Some say he was the Ronnie Drew of the Dublin Legends, while Sean Cannon was the Luke Kelly. Have you seen the Dubs concert "The Dublin Experience" at Vicar Street from 2006? Although he doesn't sing solo, he sings great gravelly backing vocals.

[@MrBelthasar]

@@jackcarter5101 Yes! There are also seven drunk nights, I forgot. But it really missed him singing at all the band's main shows. Fortunately we had the pleasure of hearing him sing Ramblin Boy in his last performances.
