Notes
1 "All For Me Grog" was originally released as a single only with Ronnie Drew on vocals and does not appear on any album. It was then re-recorded with Ciarán Bourke singing the lead — perhaps at the same time (1967) — as the arrangement is very similar. However, I don't believe this version (by Ciarán) was ever released as a single, and it doesn't appear on any Dubliners' original LP release. The first compilation (that I know of) that this version appears on is (above) The Dubliners' Greatest Hits, released in 1980 on EMI records.
2 This track was previously unreleased (prior to 1978) — and inexplicably titled "Sea Shanty" — it is in fact "Roddy McCorley". But not the version from In Concert, with Bob Lynch. The track is probably from the same session as the Dubliners' first Transatlantic LP, as it includes Luke Kelly, but not John Sheahan. The track was subsequently released on various CDs. Under the titles, "Sea Shanty" and "Roddy McCorley", just to make it more confusing.
3 "Lament for Brendan Behan" was the last recorded performance by Ciarán from the Late Late Show 25th Anniversary Tribute to the Dubliners.
