In case you haven't heard it, Beer, here's Paul Brady performing his arrangement of Arthur McBride https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBGkhPx529g that was also on the Irvine/Brady LP. I'd also recommend the Missing Liberty Tapes CD which includes live versions of Arthur McBride and other Brady arrangements of traditional songs like The Lakes of Pontchartrain and Mary and the Soldier. He's got a great backing band on it which includes most of the guys who played in Planxty at one time or another. Welcome Here Kind Stranger was also a lovely recording. You might say I'm a bit of a Brady fan.
