I haven't heard that particular recording, but I've always liked the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem. They were from a much simpler time, and their forthright "let's sing it with gusto" style isn't in fashion anymore. They weren't traditional enough for the traditionalists, and they were too folky for the folk rock crowd. But their music is just plain enjoyable and fun. And let's not forget that they could and did deliver ballads and the more sensitive material impeccably - especially Tommy Makem and Liam Clancy. I know they are not well regarded now in Ireland, but I have been told by Irish musicians that had it not been for the Clancy Brothers and their success, Irish traditional music might not have experienced the revival that it did. Subsequent groups did more research, perhaps, and were more faithful to the roots of the music, but the Clancy Brothers (and Tommy) were certainly an influence. And Tommy certainly carried the traditional torch - many of the songs he sang were learned from his mother, Sarah Makem, a noted traditional singer from Keady. "Putting on warm slippers on a not too cold morning" - I like that analogy.
