The Story Of The Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem

- Tom Clancy, Pat Clancy, Liam Clancy, and Tommy Makem were three brothers and a close friend who left their native Ireland in the mid-'50s and came to the United States. All four had some experience in the theater in Ireland, and came to New York City hoping to find work as actors. However, they were also gifted musicians and strong singers, and they soon began performing traditional folk songs from Ireland in Greenwich Village nightspots. Their fame quickly spread, and the Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem brought the music of Ireland to listeners all across America (and around the world), sparking a new interest in folk music in the process. The Story of the Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem is a documentary that looks at the remarkable career of this musical foursome, featuring interviews with the boys (and footage from a reunion show at New York's Lincoln Center), as well as thoughts from their friends and contemporaries (including Bob Dylan).

Brilliant thanks for the video clip looking back at legends of Ireland 🇮🇪 7:09 I am 55yrs old born in Derry Northern Ireland still live here love the music of the Clancy brothers would listen daily to all the great musicians who help know our history and excellent for your Mental Health in my opinion x⚘🌍🌈
Those singers will be forever in our hearts❤ theirs songs were able to touch the human soul like no one else did before 😊 I'm a french student in journalism and, for me, the Clancy brothers represent all the wonderful things in Ireland, a rebelious and independent mind, a wonderful humour and a real sense of witty ❤
My father, Irish-Scottish decent, loved Irish pub music especially the Tommy Makem & the Clancy brothers. I love their style, and how they capture that Irish spirit. It begs a response 🍀
I grew up listening to the Clancys ,paddy Riley, dubliners Jim McCann,paddy McAvoy , the fureys and many more thanks to my late dad ,great music that will never grow old 🎶 ♥ up limerick city Ireland 🇮🇪
I ADORE The Clancy brothers, along with The Dubliners,Foster and Allen...some of the best music ever written, and these three bands make it beautiful. So grateful to have had them all on our wonderful planet.
We certainly wont see their type again
They were just amazing and what ambassadors for Ireland
May they sing in Heaven
They brought a lot of attention to Ireland. Thank you Mr. Sullivan - hope you are all enjoying some heavenly music. God be good to all of you. True to your heritage and always down to earth.

I was blessed to see Tommy Makem and Liam Clancy in concert several times and their concerts were amazing and magical. I got to meet and talk with them a few minutes, I found they were both nice, genuine and gracious people. The four of them have now joined the heavenly choir but luckily their music lives on.
I love Irish music
The Irish are my favorite
Liam is my cousins :)

Conor, Thank you for uploading this fine video! :)
"When we sang a rebel song in those days it wasn't to present any political point of view except to show that there were interesting songs about what people were doing in Ireland. You know, because it was an interesting human expression...I think the folk songs always told more truth about history than the history books anyway. As somebody said, 'written history is nothing more than the propaganda of the victor'."
Thanks such truth
I only talked about the toss school in another makem and clancey video.
Mary the money she's getting so funny she won't be left out till Saint Patrick's Day. She sparing the brass for to buy a jackass for to bring her to Mass on a Sunday!
Calino Casturame? A piece played by Los Romero!
I think it is now safe to let the cat out of the bag and tell the truth about The Clancy brothers and their 1st cousin Tommy Makem, they had a flipping great time all of the time,

My father is Irish and it took the Pogues to get me to appreciate the stuff I thought was corny old country shit. Good stuff
