In concert from 1977 at Southport Arts Centre. The tunes are The Wise Maid (Listed as 'Doherty's Reel' on Dubliners records), Down The Broom and The Honeymoon Reel From BBC4's Irish Folk:The Chieftains
Fucking beautiful bit of whistle, the dubliners were a fantastic group of musicians and story tellers, and all around decent lads.Hats off to John Sheehan for this lovely couple of tunes.
@@jettimite Hi Shane, I trawled through ebay for a year or two and was lucky enough to find some of the pre 1983 Generation whistles, I have all the available keys in a mixture of brass and nickel except the high G which is way too small for me to play comfortably. There are some great whistles among them. I have a Killarney D, these old Generations stand up well compared to the Killarney even though the sound is very different. You can tell the older Generation whistles by a line that runs up the mouthpiece. If ever you see one on ebay snap it up.
@@turcarumimperator1395 In the early 80s Generation changed the manufacturing process for making the plastic mouthpiece. As far as I know they used to use a two piece mold so you had a line running up the mouthpiece where the two halves joined together. After they changed it was a single mold so the mouthpiece is smooth. Of course you can still get a new Generation whistle that is very good but they do vary in quality so it is a bit of a lottery as to what you'll get. With the old system they were consistently good. I have a few of the older ones and all of them play very well and sound wonderful but I can't say the same thing about the newer ones in my collection.
Hello, I'd just like to say this is my favourite CZcams comment. First saw this video years ago and saw your comment then and have never forgotten it. Everytime I watch this I scroll down to find your comment. It's really funny. Thank you.
My favourite Dubliners album has always been "Live at Montreux" from 1976. John plays the same selection as here. Never thought I'd see actual footage from that time.
the basic melody is still nice but u use "Ornamentation" to make it chirp and sound like a bird in a way. the whole melody will change and sound like its on steroids. you can play this song on a recorder but it wont sound anything like how john is playing it. very fun instrument and big stress reliever. All i want to do when i get home from work is play my whistle :)
what are the chords and strumming pattern for that bitta rhythm, Jim is playing there?? Deadly stuff, altogether!! RIP to every one of them! Heroes of mine
Eb whistle looks like guitar has capo on first fret to confirm also I bought a Generation Eb whistle the other day and pitch matches pefectly.Case closed,LoL.. Glenn Pall,New York
Ah he's only playing that because he's brilliant. Anyone who's brilliant could do the same. Perhaps talented too. Maybe a real feel and love for the music. OK anybody Brilliant and Talented with a real feel and love for the music could do the same. Oh and a big beard too. They would need a big beard...... 😄
Sorry, I have this selection of reels also on a record and the real title is doherty's reel, maybe the wise maid, looks almost the same, but it isn't it.
This is the cure for depression
Absolument, incontestablement !!!
I agree
Jajajajajajajaja you are right 😅

Brilliant on the tin whistle. Aswel as world class on the fiddle . Pure talent
Yes john sheehan asgood onwhistle as fiddle!
Now that's some mighty fine whistling.

I have watched this like 11232 times in the last week it's outstanding! Love the first reel especially
Какое мастерство, какая замечательная музыка, мёртвого поднимет
Magnifique !
Back in the day a Generation whistle was the thing to play. I still love the sound of them.
For a $12 whistle it’s still the bees knees I love my Eb almost as much as my Killarney Eb.

What are the difference between pre 83 generation whistles and todays new versions?

How can someone do something so beautiful with just a tiny tiny instrument like that ... O-ô

John Sheahan is still with us.
That's a funny Line up. I saw john today in Stephen's Green, said hello to him.
this is soo great 👌
I love this
His best performance in my opinion!!
happy st-patrick!
01:14 These Irish traditional whistle songs remind me a lot of our Romanian traditional whistle songs. Common Celtic heritage. BIG LIKE from Romania!
The music played here has nothing to do with "the celts." It originated in the early modern period (16th/17th century) in country dance music.
@@andrewwigglesworth3030 And where does that music have its' roots into?
seeing luke smiling in the background:)
The wise maid is the real title
Sounds great after 40 years.
brilliant
Hi, the real titles, are doherty's reel, down the broom and the honeymoon reel.
Thanks for posting
Thank you!
The first tune also goes by the name: The Wise Maid
"isn't he great for his age":) think Jim McCann said it. brilliant Dubliners as usual
Looks like Luke Kelly's voice to me! He was cheering alongside them the whole set!
And I thought 'The Irish Washerwoman' was hard. (it is)
This is a whole nother level.
For the beaten and broken.... singing like a free bird
Thats just... WOOOHOO
*Dancin´*
Top Video!
Моя любимая мелодия!!🐕🐕🦄🦄🦄🐈🐈🦊🦊🐏🐑☘☘☘☘☘☘☘☘☘
epic
Cheerful tune.
YEAH!!!!!!
I have to learn that last one for my honeymoon
Its called Dohertys reel if you'd like to find it in the correct key
Flute goes brrrr
Wait a minute, there's two BrummyDubliners now lol.
wow wow wow wow wow and wowwwwww
Eb whistle looks like guitar has capo on first fret to confirm also I bought a Generation Eb whistle the other day and pitch matches pefectly.Case closed,LoL.. Glenn Pall,New York
Keep practicing dont worry bout speed when u get used to playing the music flows keep nice steady pace and youl get there
It's the same tune. It's normally known as the Wise Maid but The Dubliners' label it on their albums as Doherty's. So you're all right
@synthpathetic Sounds like he just did a simple trill on that F#. When I play this reel on whistle I do the same ornament.
It's Doherty's Reel, I have this selection also on a record, John Sheahan is not playing here the Wise Maid.
this is still a daily listen
Does someone know the names of the reel he is playing?
i just bought a tin whistle and whould like to learn this reel later on. Thanks!
belfast hornpipe & tim maloney
Wise Maid is the first one
@GPALL52 Yep, it's Eb
which key/whistle is this in? i only have a C
Ah he's only playing that because he's brilliant. Anyone who's brilliant could do the same. Perhaps talented too. Maybe a real feel and love for the music. OK anybody Brilliant and Talented with a real feel and love for the music could do the same. Oh and a big beard too. They would need a big beard...... 😄
Any one know what key whistle John is playin is it Eb or E just curious????.Glenn Pall in New York
I want to learn how to play that thing.
Get a beard, a magical one that is
@synthpathetic Why? Will it ruin your impression of the performance, if someone dislikes it?
You just can't keep your feet still
yeeee haaaaa
Is this the only footage of the Dubliners with Luke but no Ronnie?
😎👏🇮🇪💚
Ya just can't keep ya foot still! lol
You look exactly like him wtf dude lol
Sorry, I have this selection of reels also on a record and the real title is doherty's reel, maybe the wise maid, looks almost the same, but it isn't it.
How are you doing today my name is Eric
Does anyone know where we can find those ornements ?? (For the wise maid !!)
How are you doing today my name is Eric
What is the key of this song?
looks like a generation whistle,..in the key of d..and sounds like it as its my favorite make ,even though its english made ,still good...
its not a D its a Eb
You Might Pass me the notes of the song ¿? I'm new . Thank You
How are you doing today my name is Eric
This is soooooo 1970s
Where I can find scores or notes for beginners ?
Hi Jakytus, the notes for pretty much any tune you could want to play can be found here. thesession.org/ gó néirí an t-ádh leat leis an gceol.
Maid behind the bar and I think the second tune is the Swallow tail but don't quote me on that.
Is it a Bb whistle ? So gooooooooood !
A little late but i think it may be a G or F because the small size
Eb lads
@@dakotamiller1722 its a G, too small.
Down the broom??? Sounds to me more like Congress reel... maybe tunes with the same name ;)
Fuck,hvor er det fed musik

what the songs that he played called?
Wise maid is the first one
any idea of the sheet music to play this?
How are you doing today my name is Eric moore
He's what for his age?
"Isn't he great for his age"
I'm pretty sure this video is sped up. It's a key higher than the recording, and seems impossibly fast....still enjoyable though!
You don't have much experience of tin whistle players do you. :-D
This is not magic.. this John Sheehan
Better than magic
