The Rising Of The Moon (Irish Songs Of Rebellion)

There are two versions of this album — this is the second, recorded & released in 1959, featuring new vocal arrangements and additional guitar, Irish harp, and drum accompaniment (the original featured only vocals & harmonica). The original 1956 recording, [m2630672], was never reissued in any form, with the exception of "O'Donnell Aboo", which has appeared on some compilations and in some reissues of this release. Therefore, any and all subsequent re-releases , remasters, etc, are sourced from this recording. Confusingly, both releases are credited as "Sung by Tommy Makem, Liam Clancy, Patrick Clancy, Tom Clancy", all later editions of this recording are credited as "The Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem". This 1959 edition credits "Recorded by David Hancock. Edited by Kenneth S. Goldstein" on the back sleeve - 1956 edition credits only "Recorded and edited by Kenneth S. Goldstein" This & later editions add the credit "Guitar (Jack Keenan); Irish harp (Jack Melady)" on back sleeve, 1956 edition credits only "Sung by Tommy Makem, Liam Clancy, Patrick Clancy, Tom Clancy" Different individual biographies (on the back sleeve) For more, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rising_of_the_Moon_(album) http://clancybrothersandtommymakem.com/cbtm_d10_rising.htm
