Clannad - Live in Tallaght 1977

[kaemeleon]

I am a Canadian and me ma is Irish but born in Canada, but her parents are pure irish Cork and armagh no one cares to speak irish and I told me ma that she should have kept up her irish so she could pass it to me but she said its a dead language and why bother.......... I cursed at her and said thankyou for being so though ful, that leaves me all alone in a family that dont care but i care and one day i will speak fluent irish and show them all

[scumimpaler]

What a beauty she used to be!

[terrigenabg]

Awesome!!! They are all so young :-)

[lifesavid]

I think it's wonderful that this is Enya's family

[uaskmewhat]

That was the Dubliners haunt.....

[rannelczarny]

Smutne, kiedy znów clannad zagra dla nas? Wydaje się być to nie osiągalne. Jak ja żałuję, że nie byłem na ich ostatnim występie w 2007 roku :(

[MysticWizard59F]

and what is its title?

[Kantoxygen]

Le titre de ce superbe morceau est "Eirigh Is Cuir Ort Do Chuid Eadaigh Coiriu" .

[LeslieWolf71]

It's the 6th track from the 1976 album called Dúlamán. The title is:

Eirigh Is Cuir Ort Do Chuid Eadaigh Coiriu

(Arise and Dress Yourself)

I have got all their albums. Real treasures!

[Kamisamadesu1]

Why, I don't see Eithne Patricia Ní Bhraonáin there, just her older sister. What's up...is this after she left the group. BTW, one of my favorite Clannad songs.

[tenchifreak57]

@Kamisamadesu1

this is way before enya was in the group. enya joined in 1980

[LeslieWolf71]

The most beautiful music in the world. They help me through hard times. Cheers from Hungary. Love Ireland!

[samopdrift]

Beautiful isn't it, how music connects people from all over the world. I come from Holland but i feel the same as you about this music...

[gocymru]

A Spanish friend told me the sequence of hospitality: Irish>Scottish>Welsh>English

[Namali100]

I love Irish !

[OentOent]

Could you upload Child of the sea from Clannad?

[krassiwe]

God bless the irish people!

[briganzia]

They are so young *nostalgic* ..but the music and her voice will be always wonderful

[bookkeeper57]

Moya about 21 here.

[lunescent2007]

I think she's about 25, as I think she was born in 1952.

[nisgaroth]

this is truly a wonderful music

[EireGoon]

Nice clip :) Pity the quality is a bit iffy.

Thanks for putting it up!

[dkfelix]

Oh them good ol' days - the childhood of moving pictures.

[smaointewildchild]

They're so young -.-

[hawkinsmichelle3]

I used to go up there as a kid on sundays with my family and relatives in Tallaght and we would play out side, drink red lemonade and listen to the trad. I was back in the Emb last year where a Chinese restaurant had been set up. The bar is still open, but the glory is well gone. There was a nightclub there in the 80's called Safari Nights!!! But the place has potential. It would be great to reopen the place as a trad venue.

[hellocretins]

so whose the one playing the double-bass with the beautiful and soft voice?

[quasarsphere]

That'd be Ciaran Brennan.

[PinkPunkGirl80]

Yup thats Ciaran. I think he's got a gorgeous voice..and he himself was gorgeous :)

[hellocretins]

yes i agree,he shouldve done far more singing :) thanks both of you for the answer :)

[AmersfoortTristan]

Sorry sir.. you are too old for that.

[coreylahey1985]

I love Clannad & cant believe i live so close to where this took place but just a generation too late

[trollfinger]

The embankment held loads of proper trad sessions years ago, luke kelly, the dubliners. and the owner even told art garfunkel to fuck off away from the door one night. around that tallaght area was nothing but trees back then.

[Thx1138d]

Love this song! Too bad it is not better quality. I like the early Clanned before they turned to New Age. Anymore videos of this concert? Maire is hot!

[ytclif2s]

Moya was so young at this performance! Would someone kindly slow down the hands of time already??

[Bunnyemmeline]

Good to see, thank you for posting this. Nice to see Pol with them in those days. Was great to see him make an appearance at Glasgow gig earlier this year. Lovely song.

[ToughDiamond]

Nice clip...did they do more than one show at the Embankment? One show was televised, and I recorded the sound from all but the first song of that, yet I've found 2 songs on YouTube that purport to be from the Embankment, though neither song is on my recording. Did I remember wrong or was there more than one show?

[Niklasfromgermany]

i love clannad

[roibeardx]

The Clannad collection's not complete without 'Éirigh's'cuir Ort do Chuid Éadaigh'! Thanks very much for posting! :]

[Sportymike]

simply wonderful
