- The great banjo virtuoso Barney McKenna plays his standard selection of reels in Stuttgart on 3rd November 2011. The Maid behind the bar / The Boyne hunt / The Shaskeen Reel & The High Reel.
I was 13 when I first saw this live. This man made me idol the banjo and made me want to play it. my granda bought me my first banjo and said don't come back until I hear you play it at a family session. I'm not a musical person and far from it. I turned to my dad and said one day I'm gonna play that tune. I'm now 23 and I'm privileged to say I've mastered the banjo and played this song to my grandfather and to my dad. Barney was my first inspiration and I hope his memory will never die as a piece of him lives within me. Barney you where the man that made me pick up the instrument and I hope I'm the man to inspire others. Rip. ❤️
Nice... Really nice David! 👍
I’m 65 & he inspired me to play too. Lol😂
I had a banjo, acoustic guitar n bodhrain in mi car but it got impounded n I wasn't able to get them back 😢
That's god talking through a tenor banjo...you are being missed Barney...you may rest now...we love you...
the tenor banjo master in full fly
God? Hmm.
Really? It's just diatonic Celtic tunes, played beautifully.
God Bless ya Barney. I was raised to think you were a Rebel against Society, but in your last years I had the honour of serving you nearly every day. I realised you were not a Rebel , you were a lighthouse. I promise to do all I can to keep that light burning.
I couldn't have said it better. Thank you.
Never get tired listening Barney McKena, a real legend from Ireland to the world.
There is only one barney McKenna who will never be replaced
barney was the most unique individual ive ever met, i wish i could have met him once more.
he was incredibly kind, and very certain about the world.
i will never forget him!
Forever Barney, the best banjo player and folker I've ever seen. Thanks for your music mr. McKenna. A Catalunya t'estimem.
I love how he just fiddles away when he starts, like he forgot how the tune went. And then all of a sudden it comes flowing out.
The man was a magician with his instrument, what a talent.
Godspeed Barney Banjo McKenna...... God will be blessed with You'r heavently Banjoplaying.... And You will live forever in our hearts and memories......
bin einfach nur unglaublich froh dort in stuttgart zum 2 mal dabei gewesen zu sein R.I.P barney
My God if you think the Maestro could play the Tenor Banjo here you should have heard him when he had youth on his side in the 60's and 70's. Blisteringly Brilliant. RIP, never forgotten my friend.
Barney- Godfather of banjo R,I,P, we all love you never forget you
Barney McKenna... such a unique character and musician. I have seen him performing and entertaining live a few times. Great man! True hero of mine!
His laugh at 1:50 got me
R.I.P The God of the Banjo
I have been a lifelong fan of barney and have met him countless times and have played with him a few times too, he was the sole reason I took up the banjo to begin with, his technique and overall playing did start to suffer In his final years due to advancing age and failing health but in his prime no one played a meaner banjo than barney, by no means was he technically flawless but it's pretty fair to say if it wasn't for him the instrument wouldn't be as popular as it is now, he was and always will be my hero, r.i.p to a legend
+Paddy Byrne Very Nice Paddy. I used to go into O'Donoghues back in ''63 and joined in all the Great craic. I came out to Boston in mid '64. I'm retired now in Boston . Cheers
Paddy Byrne * )
Damming by "faint praise"..sad, when referring to one of the best protagonists ever :-(
My nanny (Barney's sister) loves to read this comments, thank you :)
Spontaneous and wonderful
RIP Barney 😥
I was there and Barney's playing was so so wonderful!
Just the best!
R.I.P.Barney this was the tune Barney played at every single gig, Hope they bury his paragon with him, cant see the dubliners keeping going with the loss of Barney
Barney makes music that makes you glad to be alive
Good ole Irish music..Barry mckenna,..simply the best !
It doesn't get any better than this. Euphoric.
Super ,ich liebe es, hat mein Leben bereichert. Und ich bin traurig das es so etwas nie wieder geben wird.
Wonderful best tenor banjo ever
Gone - - - - But Never Forgotten - - - - RIP Barney Boy
Wundervolle Musik, Barney und Eamonn waren einzigartig.
Leider sind beide nicht mehr auf dieser Welt, danke das es Euch gab.
Fabulous Paddy Barnley . Seen you on tour in Paris March 17 2008 for St Patrick , unforgettable . We miss you so much Barnley , Rest in Peace
What an incredible man.
Amazing. My first vinyl is from 1979. As they came to Frankfurt as early as 1968, I was to stupid and ignorant to attend. An eternal shame.
Today 16th of December is Barney’s mc Kenna s Birthday and would have been his 84th birthday 🎁 God bless you Barney some banjo player
Poor Barney :( R.I.P U will never been forgotten and never will
Hes some legend
by god could he play the banjo! love this tune, this is real music!!!!!! xx;)
nobody does it like this ... Barney !!!
Stop quibbling. A live performance not a pickled recording and Barney smiling at the clapping. Lovely man
I was lucky enough to see a few shows with barney playing his banjo and the rest of the gang :-) they will never be able to replace barney :-(
Happy birthday BARNEY 12 year gone now RIP
The music lives on...........
💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚 Barney was the best such a dear fella
9 years today since he passed :(
they must`ve retired all the harps in heaven when this banjo arrived .rip barney
What?:
When Barnes was playing the banjo he forgot the world around him and the music just led his fingers.
well done barney you were the very best.
Loving this!
Love this. I’ve worked in out on the five string and it’s one of my all time favorites!
I once had the chance to see these auld chaps live at stage... but i missed it... I still regret it!
Saw them 40 years ago... Still remember them. There are others I have missed, though. 😏
Thumbs down folks on here are morons No one ever cared if he missed the odd note now and then....... this was live performance and plus maybe he had a few pints. He played from the heart. All the Dubliners were legends that sadly we will never see again.........they were golden days back then
Barney played the 4 string tenor banjo with a plectrum......Earl Scruggs was the master of the 5 string banjo. He used finger and thumb picks........both legends no longer with us.......RIP to 2 of the finest players ever
makes it look so easy a genius .
With the bit of a stretch in the evenings, the story of the Dubliners doing a concert down the country comes to mind.
For some reason or other, the concert was cancelled, and the lads headed for the nearest pub around 9pm, needless to say, they drank into the early hours, and upon exiting the pub at around 5am when dawn was breaking, Barney turns to Ronnie and remarks, ''Ah Ronnie, but isn't there a great stretch in the evenings all the same!''
Legend! loved his laugh like a little kid!!
Ahh! Finally a report from Barboursville, Virginia, U.S.A. One of the best from Barney over 50 years! Go mbeannai dia anseo.
R.I.P Barney, may you rest in piece.
god bless you, you great human barney.
Great to learn (after all those years) that Banjo music features prominently in Irish culture. I must have missed quite a lot during my early days - serving as a young 'squaddy' in UK armed forces.
i love barney bless him.
R.I.P Barney McKenna of The Dubliners, beautiful banjo bastard bar none.
god bless Barney xxxx
Nobody plays like Barney
As usual the clapping put Barney right off.Barney the King
RIP
No, I can´t aggree with you! Maybe it is fun and passion for those, who clap their hands, but it´s torture for those, who want to listen to this wunderful music. I´ve heard them live frequently, mostly because of Barney´s soli, but the egoistic clapping of (most of the time drunk) people always was hell for me. I love the music, the banjo, the mandolin and Barney Mc Kenna, - and I miss him! RIP, Banrey
Aw Barny mo chara grand craic so ya are .Great video thanks for sharing 👍
RIP Mighty Man Barney!
RIP Barney. Last of the Original 1962 Dubliners
master at work barney was the best banjo player
how can this performance have 44 dislikes. it must be from morons who listen to music only produced with a computer. this is actual music and it makes you want to get up and dance.
50 people search youtube for maid and expect erotic results. dont pay any attention. focus on the music and give respect to the artist.
M"Joseph Christensen
Joseph Christensen, the dislikes are from people who have no friends, because they are boring, not funny or just plain ugly and disliking things is the only way, they can get people to communicate with them.
Amen!!
Dislikes may be pertaining to quality, recordings, etc. Don't be such a gobshite
R.I.P Barney :-(
Barney, you are the best!
i love you barney and miss ya:) :(

Sami Härkönen a good
If you think this is Barney at his best, you should have heard him 40 years ago when he was simply awsome, without doubt a Maestro at the very top of his game, nay - simply a genious on the Tenor banjo.
That's why the Dubs were unique, Barney and his Banjo, John a maestro on the fiddle, Luke, a voice which was simply irreplaceable and Ronnie with a voice like coke crushed under a door, a one off. All were just brilliant in their own way. The best folk group of all time ? without doubt.
well said
Brilliant.
sounds so much like the southernstates love it
Irish and scottish people have the best music ever
irish
r.i.p barney
The mana legend
top quality
And God bless Sweetmelody for uploading it :-)
Dont forget to give Rory a hug! RIP
R.I.P.
God Rest barney, he's the only one that can play a fuckin Banjo know matter what he's never forgotten
