Clancy Project

We have teamed-up with friends across the globe in urging Sony Music to reissue on CD, many of the Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem recordings that presently exist only on vinyl or have never been heard before. There is a wealth of classic material here and it would be very sad if new generations were unable to experience the magic and energy of these recordings.

We need your help! The current plan calls for a coordinated effort among Clancy fans to request from Sony Music the 1961 album entitled, “A SPONTANEOUS PERFORMANCE RECORDING!” Once this recording is “set free” by Sony, efforts will be redirected toward another title. SPONTANEOUS PERFORMANCE is a classic recording that was nominated for a Grammy Award and features a guest appearance by Pete Seeger. In addition to the original tracks on the record, there are tracks that have never been released that Sony could include on the reissued CD.
