Product Description:
Collectables' The Best of the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem collects 28 cuts from the legendary Irish folk group, including classics like "Whiskey You're the Devil," "Jug of Punch," "Johnny I Hardly Knew You," and "Little Beggarman." There is no shortage of Clancy compilations out there (far more than actual albums) and this one, like the majority of them, is adequate. ~ James Christopher Monger
