2.0 out of 5 stars Some good, some not as good, July 20, 2000

While the first half of the disc is great traditional Clancy Bros. the second half (with some others from their families) left a bit to be desired. The second half of the CD seems to also be a bit poorer quality than the first. If you're into a full collection of their music this may be for you. Collectors should beware, this is the same CD as "The Best of The Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem"; however the latter is at a higher price.

1.0 out of 5 stars Grossly Disappointing, March 10, 2001

This CD includes some of the best traditional titles from the Clancey Brothers. Unfortunately, the audio quality of the recording is so poor that some of the tracks are unintelligable. It sounds as though some tracks were third or fourth generation copies from audio tape, some were pireted by somebody with a concert ticket and a cassette recorder, and some were surreptitiously recorded in Mother Clancey's parlor late one St. Patrick's Day night. If you are a true fan, you probably have all these songs in better form; if you're a novice, this is NOT going to be a cornerstone of your collection. Pass it by!
