Thank you for enriching my life . Peace 🙏
As kids we would watch the Irish Rovers on tv when ever they were on. I really enjoyed all the good ole shows back then ! Miss them all ! These guys were GREAT !!!!!!
I saw The Irish Rovers a couple of times here in Kamloops. My parents, siblings and I always had a great time singing along, jumping around and clapping. We once were pointed out by Wil Millar. who said that he hoped everyone was having as good a time as we were. Ah, memories.
My mother and I saw them live around 20 times
VERY TALENTED.
Fantastic show! Glenn Yarbrough was amazing, as always. No one sang or whistled better than he did.
Back in the late 60's, the Irish Rovers had a variety show during the Summer months. Great program.

I wish these had made it down here to the U.S. back in the day. It is high time for Folk Music to make a comeback! Thank you my Canadian Cousins! Best wishes from Tennessee, USA.
Ive followed Glenn Yarbrough and Glen Campbell since early 60s. Their voices always settled my muttled mind.
Fantastico lads love u guys 👍🙋♀️
Just want to send Happy Thoughts in 2020. Just lost A very Dear Friend today and this music always made him smile. What would us old fokes do without you and your music
Love Irish dancing
All Star lineup with great performances. God bless everyone from Patrick
Thanks for providing this. Joy like this helps getting through Covid!
Was there ever a voice like Glenn Yarbrough's???
No, there never was, and there sure won't be again. A truly unique timbre and range. Just magnificent!
What a wonderful flashback ! I remember watching this...I would have been 15. Thanks for the posting
My father absolutely loved this show, along with many other Canadian music programs back then. Tommy Hunter was another he never missed. We lived out in Haney on the South Alouette river when this episode aired. I would have been 11 years old and remember many nights our home was filled with the sound of music from all over Canada. It was a great time to be a kid.
THANK YOU for posting up another wonderful Irish Rovers special! I never got to see any of these back in the day, so I really appreciate seeing them now. Thank you, thank you!
Dammmnnn! Fabulous! Imagine the fiddler & Charlie Daniels playing together! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💃🎶🎶🤩😍
I saw them at the Sudbury Arena when I was 8 with my mom that was blind.
I think Jimmy Ferguson is a "HOOT" he really gets into each song.
He's just the best
Wow! I would have been 5 years old when this was recorded. I remember seeing the guys on their TV show when I was about 3 but I have never seen this. Thanks for posting!
Thank you So Much For this!!! Please keep these Rovers shows coming! Love it!
Thank you!!!!. What a treat! I've never seen this one before. Hope to see lots more Irish rovers specials and shows from your archive . Beautiful!
I love these Irish Rovers shows so much. Thank you for posting this beautiful special. Please post more of your Irish Rovers cbc shows. I'd love to see more of their on location specials as well. One in particular they did in 1974, in the Cotswolds would be great to see if you happen to have that. Thank you so much for these. Keep em coming.
Wonderful to see a new Rovers special from their heyday. These never get old. Thank you for posting. I'd love to see more of the boys from their cbc tv days. Keep em coming.
Awe thank you so much for posting!! Dancing on this show in the seventies was an amazing experience for a teenager. I’ve been looking for this for years. ❤️❤️❤️
We are so glad you found us. Dancers were always popular on the Rovers shows and to find a show on which you actually performed is a miracle. Thank you so much for contacting us.
God love ya all!
Thanks a million for sharing these classic Rovers vids with us. I can't wait to see more of them.
Thank you so much for sharing this. First time I've ever seen this one from the Rovers. I can't wait to see more of them from you.
It's wonderful to see the ones when Bob O'Donovan was part of the group. The first time I ever saw them perform live was shortly after he joined the group.
Au Québec on écoutait pas du tout la télévision en anglais. Et un soir, j'ai regardé pour voir... et suis tombé sur le "Irish Rovers Show" diffusé de Vancouver. J'ai été immédiatement passionné, même si je ne comprenais pas les paroles, tellement c'était dynamique, riche en chansons les plus variées et toujours dans une bonne humeur joyeusement envahissante. Nul doute que tout cet état d'esprit et le travail de préparation des émissions reposaient sur la seule personnalité de Will Millar, personnage d'une puissante créativité. Probablement trop envahissant et exigeant auprès de ses comparses... il aura conduit à cette rupture, notamment avec son frère George. Cela est bien regrettable. Mais que de beaux souvenirs de cette époque !
I've seen the Rovers twice, but both times were after Will left the group. We wish we've could've him too.
Greetings from Italy.
I would love to hear all these songs in Irish Gaelic
But not likely from these Rovers who left Ireland early and became Canadians.
And now for a true story, Wayback in time when I was a very young boy living out in the hills of Connemara, those Irish Rovers were always hanging around outside our gate drinking milk and laughing their heads off. Later I found out that were living at the bottom of my garden, they were up to no good, into trouble causing fights and arguments with their neighbors, they never stopped causing trouble day and night. many times I had to go out of my bed in the middle of the dark cold windy winter night, go down to the bottom of the garden and help to settle those wilder Irish Rovers down,
Got my Guinness!
So rare to see Tom Paxton.
Super 👋
Margaret McDowell if you are out there I would love to connect with you. Heather Bawn your dance student who adored you from Vancouver Canada ❤️
46:19 - 'Now to ride Mrs. O'Reilly'
47:45 Feel Like I Gotta Travel On
42:49 "Come Go With Me to That Land"
Tommy Makem is a reincarnation ot the Bards who played at Tara
Thank you.
Can anyone tell me who sings 'Gotta Travel on' at around the 48 minute mark. I know they introduce him, but I can't make out the name. Thanks.
Mike Settle.
Anyone know the name of the reel at 11:23 ?? Would be of great help
It sounds a lot like "Fermoy Lasses," which the Dubliners often opened with.
Could someone please give me the name of the song with John Allan Cameron? I don't understand what Will says... Or maybe the full set list? Thanks!
It is called "The Feller From Fortune" - here are the lyrics
Oh, there's lots of fish in Bonavist' harbour,
Lots of fish right in around here'
Boys and girls are fishin' together'
Forty-five from Carbonear.
Chorus:
Oh, catch-a-hold this one, catch-a-hold that one
Swing around this one, swing around she;
Dance around this one, dance around that one
Diddle-dum this one, diddle-dum dee.
Oh, Sally is the pride of Cat Harbour,
Ain't been swung since last year,
Drinkin' rum and wine and cassis
What the boys brought home from St Pierre.
Oh, Sally goes to church every Sunday
Not for to sing nor for to hear,
But to see the feller from Fortune
What was down here fishin' the year .
Oh, Sally's got a bouncin' new baby,
Father said that he didn't care,
'Cause she got that from the feller from Fortune
What was down here fishin' the year.
Oh, Uncle George got up in the mornin',
He got up in an 'ell of a tear
And he ripped the arse right out of his britches
Now he's got ne'er pair to wear.
Oh, there's lots of fish in Bonavist' Harbour,
Lots of fishermen in around here;
Swing your partner, Jimmy Joe Jacobs,
I'II be home in the spring of the year
@@artwithaweebitofmagic Thank you very much!
@@artwithaweebitofmagic Interesting, how many variations there are with the lyrics. I learned a different version long before this show was done.
@@Shan_Dalamani I think that goes with many songs. Everyone puts their twist on it!
because each country doesn't have its own folk music?
Well you are deffo not irish. You don't have to an Irish accent. You sound more Scottish to me.
You are wrong. Lead Will Millar and his brother George Millar were born in BALLYMENA, County Antrim and Jimmy Ferguson was born in BELFAST They emigrated to Canada in the early 1960s.
Sorry it was 1954 not the early 60-s.
You are very wrong, all of these fellas are born in Ireland. They are from the North of Ireland which has a Scottish influence in the accent due to Plantation of Ulster in the 1600s. They are DEFFO Irish
