Notes
Since his initial burst of popularity in the 1960s, Tommy Makem has been the best known and most beloved Irish singer in the world. Throughout his career, he's avoided pop crossover pitfalls by staying close to his traditional Irish folk roots. His best material is with frequent collaborators the Clancy Brothers, but his catalogue is deep and growing.
This is a compilation album containing (to my knowledge) all previous release material.
