A search on "Rose of Tralee" in the British Library's "National Sound Archive" (CADENSA) reveals that the archive contains 239 recordings of the song, the earliest dated being by Edin Schneider in 1929, though some of the undated ones may well be earlier as (e.g. John McCormack recorded it a few times).
