@sconefairy Perhaps ...but they can still be found outside the Black Hole ..but it's getting harder to find them ....that generation is getting thin on the ground ...so unless the younger folk get after it it will become extinct in this form.
No disrespect to Planxty, Tir NaNog, et al , but this beautiful song comes from the finest Irish folk album ever released: 'Celtic Folkweave'. 1974 , I think - Vinyl very hard to find - was never released onto CD.
If anyone knows whose got the master tapes, contact me and i promise i'll re-release it myself.
Is breá liom an t-amhrán (-:

Heaps better than the Altan version. This is beyond compare.

@carollizc It's all about taste. I think Altan's is pretty nice too. Micheál's singing is just incomparable... May he rest in peace.

Is this not yet another classic fallen into the Celtic Music Ltd Black Hole?
