We - Michael Tubridy and I - are seeking early recordings of The Chieftains.

Michael writes! "You are unearthing a lot of memories for me now!! When I think back, I realise we played the Albert Hall twice in 1975, on March 17th (which was the one which convinced us to go professional), and again on 8th October. We met Jo Lustig at the beginning of February 1975, and he persuaded us to do the 17th March - I’ve no idea how he was able to arrange that, but he did, and it sold out! So I don’t know who recorded it that night, but very unlikely to be either the BBC or RTÉ, but there is definitely a recording because a clip from it was shown on Paddy’s ]Moloney] documentary. While my main interest is in the 17th March, still the BBC recording of 8th October would be of great interest to me also. Thanks, Michael."

If anyone has any ideas please let us know.
