This was enjoy'd in late September of 2014 by a 28 yr old in Los Angeles. Television sucks.

All the soul of "Planxty" is there with Andy Irrvine. And he play two songs I can't findon albums with the same "powerfull "spirit , of the all band had at this time.

Great! Andy made a recording of "Lost Train Blues" for me in a gents toilet in TCD in 1967. It had great acoustics but, sadly, it has disappeared as I have moved many times. Andy has incredible control of a harmonica and can do stuff I just cannot copy. He has visited Australia over the years and still weaves the same magic.

My respect for Andy continues to grow by the minute as I watch these videos. He is an astonishing player as are Donal and Paul as well, and a great singer to boot! If only I had access to stuff like this back then when I was coming of age as a budding musician, my life today might be a different story!

I bought this in '76 and just had couple of photos of these fellas. Spent forever transcribing lyrics by lifting and dropping the needle and can't believe that I don't have to get this music off my old albums--didn't think they would all be here ready to download different versions and they are Live!!

I think I'd have to drink off a "health" to Andy, Dónal and Paul's playing truly amazing, mar a déarfá:"Caith siar é agus na lig aniar é aris!"
