The Dubliners chronology
Plain and Simple Live Now

Recorded live in Sheffield and released on the Polydor label in 1974, this was to be Ronnie Drew's last recording with The Dubliners for five years as he left to pursue a solo career. Also following this album, Ciaran Bourke ceased to be a full-time member of the group when he suffered a brain hemorrhage. He sings "All For Me Grog" here. The reels that open this album have become the opening instrumental medley at most of their concerts since.
