For those of you of a certain age and at least partly Irish (calling easyed) I am sure that you are mourning the loss of Tommy Makem of Tommy Makem and the Clancy Brothers (only one surviving member now is Liam Clancy). I am listening to their album 28 Irish Pub Songs today as I celebrate his life.

Thanks, great article. Except for the corny Aran sweaters - I have two of them, and I think they are cool.

One can never be too young to appreciate the work of Makem & the Clancy Bros.
Slán agus beannacht leat, Tommy!
