The Clancy Brothers

"Christmas features the four Clancy Brothers, Paddy, Tom, Liam and Bobby and was released in October 1968. The cover was photographed in T & H Doolan's Pub & Restaurant in Waterford, owned by Liam Clancy at the time. When Tommy Makem left the group in April 1969 he was replaced by Bobby Clancy who was well known as a performer in his own right, and had a popular TV series on RTE with his sister Peg Power. The cultural legacy of the Clancy brothers and of Tommy Makem has become part of the fabric of our society. "
