The Dutchman, written by Michael Peter Smith is performed here by Liam Clancy - with Robbie O'Connell at Irish Fest in Milwaukee 2002?

The author of this song is Michael Peter Smith, whose catalog I administer. It would be nice if you afforded him a credit in association with this clip. Thanks - DMZ, Bird Avenue Publishing-ASCAP

  • @GoodOldGar I'm sure Liam was using the term shell-shocked as a metaphor and never intended it to be taken literally. Liam was a great artist who took a very lyrical view of life. This is a marvellous interpretation of a beautiful song.

  • That's Liam's son Donal Clancy, a fine Irish guitarist, to the left of Liam. These three sang together often under the name "Clancy, O'Connell, and Clancy." Now that Liam is gone, Donal and Robbie still perform with each other (and with their cousin Aoife Clancy). They're billed as the "Clancy Legacy."

    Thanks for the clip.

  • I have been performing this song since 1971. I never tire of it and neither do audiences. I feel very lucky to have known Michael Peter Smith for more than 30 years and have sung many of his tunes over that length of time. Here is a man who can paint a picture with words, so brilliant in its colors and vivid in its portrayal of his visions, be they bent and scarey or soft and loving. A truer artist there isn't these days!

  • Yes, VERY MUCH...a beautiful love story and she remembers him as a young man...I hope to be so loved and taken care of in my old age....we should all be so lucky...

  • RIP Liam! Our country has really lost one of our greats! I hope he knew how good he was, and how loved he was

  • Gawd will be good to Liam the Bard..... the Poet. Heaven just got better......... Well done!

  • Lovely, RIP Liam and thank you for the music

  • I first heard this from Steve Goodman when I 'discovered' him a few years ago. Does it remind anyone else of Ronald and Nancy Reagan after his presidency?
