Well I am Irish so I'm pretty familiar with the Clancy's, this chart is just very much a work in progress (and has been for quite some time...), but thanks all the same JMan.
I have noticed you've been interested in Irish folk over the last few days though (or folk to us here in Ireland). You should try out Planxty (I could see you enjoying some of Christy Moore's stuff in particular), The Bothy Band, The Chieftans (they've got a really cool album with Van Morrison I'd recommend), Wolfe Tones and probably a few more of the 'heavyweights'that I'm forgetting now. I've seen you listen to the Dubliners before so definitely expand there, there's a pretty solid Luke Kelly compilation that's worth a listen. I have a few Irish charts here and there that might be worth a look, (both my own and ripped from publications).

Haha, naturally this chart is a work in progress like the majority of my decade charts and this one has a long way to go, I like to keep my charts public, allowing for other users to share recs if they please. So yeah, this will grow into a proper chart in due course.
