...and as the band came on the stage for the THIRD encore, Paddy said to the audience; "Sure yer gluttons for punishment" There is some fine music being played in the Heavens tonight.

I've listened to this 100 times today. No lie.

This song saved me and my sister. When my abusive father was on the booze we would dance around our table to this song to distract us from what was coming when he got drunk.
Thank you for this song, it got me through my childhood.

Grew up listening to this music, the Wolfe Tones, Dubliners etc. Brought my fathers ashes home to Dublin and spread them, along with my mother’s on a beach near Howth where they had their first date. Took his urn around to a few of his favourite pubs first tho’, he’d have loved that☘️

"And a feeling of great exhilaration possessed me, like a sudden lungful of purer air. The great pointlessness of it, the non-sense of nature, was beautiful, and no-one else would know it again, exactly as we knew it at that moment."Rip Paddy Maloney.

The very first Chieftains track i ever heard, way back in the 80's. Still makes my heart skip a beat in 2021.
Rest in Peace Mr Paddy Moloney 😢

Unbelievable! I was just humming this to myself an hour ago and Youtube offers it to me. Probably the first Chieftains tune that I ever heard when the great DJ John Peel played on his evening show, so in 1973 when the LP came out. I bought it straight away, to my parents great relief, as they were tired of heave metal.

It reminds me that we have not got enough of Paddy Moloney's piping on record. Such a wonderful style. All I ever had was a couple of tunes on the compilation Claddagh "The Drones and Chanters", including a wonderful "Bumper Squire Jones".

RIP Paddy. Thanks for the many wonderful musical moments. None better than this one.

Till this day I didn't know about Mr Paddy, may he rest in peace 😥. 15 years now since I first heard them, even bought a tin whistle living in Brazil, I don't know what to say, I'm just sad now

Chieftains, Bothy Band, Sweeney's Men, Dubliners, Planxty. The soundtrack of my childhood

[sylvainchamoux]

Cette musique est très populaire en France - nous adorons le rythme du Bodran et les violons ... c'est même le générique d'une série télévisée dont les épisodes s déroulent à l'âge de pierre ...

[sheilathie]

I walked down the aisle to this. Slowed down. RIP Dad

[golkas]

This tune captures the essence of the Irish spirit!!!

[WayneHarder-qkco]

My grandmother and aunt were Scottish! I miss them so!

[clovismerovech]

I have no words to describe how this makes me feel and how grateful I am 🙏❤☘

From a group so excelled in Irish culture and its heritage, I've studied them for years and listened longer than want to admit, even some of their shite stuff. This piece alone sums up best, the very best of what irish music is and what the chieftains personify
