If you can find a more stirring collection of Irish ditties, you'd better buy it, but it's doubtful you'll top this budget set. Not with the great Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem doing the honors and a price so low you'll be able to afford an extra pint for your mates. The wind is at your back all the way as the lads avoid chestnuts like "Danny Boy" along with Broadway-Irish show tunes, tearing into "Whack Fol the Diddle" and other "reel" deals instead. Highlights include the weeper "The Croppy Box," roof rattler "Finnigan's Wake," and "The Rising of the Moon," better known for the same-tune political song it spawned, "The Wearing of the Green." Tommy is in beautiful voice on "The Foggy Dew," earning his reputation as one of the best Irish singers of recent decades, and the Clancy Brothers excel on instruments and voice box. --Bob TarteCustomer Reviews:

Get the reissued versions!!!!!.......2007-02-25
These tracks come from the first two albums of the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem. They are called "Rising of the Moon" and "Come Fill Your Glass With Us" These tracks were recently reissued on Rykodisc, restored and remastered. Frankly, they sound AMAZING! This complation has terrible sound quality, and the recordings sound like they were copied from an old LP. Don't settle for this ugly sounding reissue, go and check out the remastered versions. Unless you are on a serious budget, get the other discs. Combined, they cost about twice what this costs, but IT IS WORTH IT!
Not Just for St. Patrick's Day!.......2006-12-28
It was originally issued as two separate vinyl LPs, recorded about 50 years ago. The first 14 tracks were on an album called "Irish Songs of Rebellion" while the last 14 comprised an album entitled "Irish Drinking Songs." That should explain the division between the anti-English war songs and the songs about drunks, drinking, and women.
I find nothing wrong with the sound quality, instrumentation, or engineering here. Of course my copy of the CD is an earler release on a different label with different cover art. As the tracks are identical and the songs are in the same order, I suspect it is identical to the version offered for sale here.
It seems I add another Celtic CD or two to my collection every year and play the Irish ones around St. Patrick's Day. This bargain disc holds up well against the competition -- the Dubliners, the Battering Ram, the Irish Rovers, the Chieftains (with and without James Galway and Van Morrison), Clannad, Danu, and a more recent Clancy Bros./Makem anthology. I won't even compare it with Foster & Allen, who are not my cuppa tea.
Apparently this CD will not please everyone, but at this price it's certainly worth a listen!

Brought Back Memories.......2007-07-13
On time and in great shape........2007-04-16
A very decent intro for the price.......2005-03-15
I first bought "All the Best Irish Drinking Songs" in cassette years ago to simply learn some pub songs before an Irish vacation. I wasn't looking for classic renditions or sublime technical achievement, just something to teach me the tunes.
For the price, I was very pleasantly surprised. The songs are great, and this assortment is hard to find in one recording. Whether the "pub atmosphere" in the background is contrived or authentic was irrelevant to me; I did feel that it enhanced the listening experience, however, so I think it's a nice touch. If inauthenticity in that kind of thing gets your cockles up, then look to the Clancy Brothers or any other Irish folk legends for "live" concert recordings, or Matt Molloy for an honest-to-gosh pub recording, but you won't find these tunes in one product for any price anywhere else. The only downsides I found with this economic recording were no lyric sheet, and tempos that might vary from "studio" versions of the same songs, but all in all, it's a very enjoyable little tape for a small investment.

Dreadful Example of Irish Music.......2003-02-09
Imagine handing a CD by Lawrence Welk to some foreigner and telling them "this is a very good example of American music", and that's what you have here that is supposed to be representative of Irish music.
This is the sort of thing that they play in the retirement homes on St. Patrick's Day, and then they put the CD away for another 364 days.

In the case of this buoyant CD, "various artists" actually means "Clancy Brothers," since there is always a Clancy or more to be found on each tune. Then again, who else do you want to hear sing "Irish pub songs" anyway? Most of the 18 songs find the Brothers joining forces with Lou Killen; three cuts feature Liam in solo performance and one features the Brothers with Robbie O'Connell. Like the Eskimos and snow, the Irish seem to have a million words for alcohol and all of them seem to pop up here at some point. Mixed in with the jolly drinking songs are songs about women, history, odd characters, and politics, but they don't spoil the joyous mood and they last just long enough for you to refill your jug. By the way, Bob Dylan fans will want to hear O'Connell and the Clancys' spot-on reworking of "Ramblin' Gamblin' Willie," a tune that Dylan based on the Clancys' reading of "Brennan on the Moor." --Marc GreilsamerCustomer Reviews:
