Wow. Everything had to go right for an incredible Irish musician to go to another country and stumble upon an extremely rare book to find an old song that a woman heard growing up with her Irish immigrant family. I mean, that's fate right there.
Kevin says the lads were all set for a tour, for the first time ever... and then coronavirus hit right before the plane took off. Arthur beats the shit out the recruiters through ZOOM... for the day being pleasant and charmin'.
There are a few Irish Gaelic words in it such as "Spailpín" (Spalpeen or brat). A Spalpeen is poor day- labourer. McBride (Mac Ghiolla Bhríde) is a very common surname in the Ulster (north-most) province of Ireland but also among the Irish/Gaelic clans of Scotland. The song probably has Irish/Scottish roots but the lyrics sound to me like slightly archaic English as well. Nobody sings it like Paul Brady. Sláinte!
Look up Paul Brady singing Arthur McBride - there are a couple of RUclips full performances of his available. One has a very amusing video representation of the story along with it.
There is no question that Dylan basically covered PB's version but a group called The Exiles recorded Arthur McBride in 1966 in which they sang "get nuthin but grool in the morning" ..a bit of spontaneous/coincidental creativity here. Folk music at it's best.

this is what PB was put here to do right?
Damn straight! That is serendipity right there.
Love this song, I never get tired of listening to it, salute Paul Brady 👍🏻 May the LORD bless and sustain him ✝️
For me this is the definitive version of this song....❤. As for Paul Brady and Andy Irvine....two legends.....😊
Paul is first class. I saw him in Athlone back in April. Magnificent.
Greatest performance of greatest song ever.
I so love listen to this song and Paul Brady does a great job in doing so..... thanks for sharing P
The very best job! What a great voice (and the guitar isn't bad either 😉)
Paul Brady is a once in a generation kind of talent. Unquestionably the most accomplished Irish musician of the modern age.
Looked up Carrie Grover on Google & found it. I was delighted! Thanks for the info, Paul. You rock!
This is a gem of a video:)
One of the most Wonderful songs ever Mr Brady in my Opinion has made it his own.
Wow he plays it so well
That's probably the least you should expect from a professional musician, to be fair.
Always wanted to know this thanks

Where would somebody find the original quality video performance in the beginning?

@@dorasneddon774 unfortunately the audio in this clip is better than the audio of the full clip on RUclips.
This is the one I listen to ruclips.net/video/cBGkhPx529g/видео.html&ab_channel=MickConnell
@@ihateyoutube8789 yes, same here. That's the clip I was referring to. Same as in this video but unfortunately more compressed
@@eoghancasserly3626 Got ya. Yeah it is. Funny the quality difference, it seems strange that the best version wouldn't be up in full somewhere.
Is it gaelic being spoken by the lads in this video?
Is Sea. (Sha)
Yes.
Irish Gaelic.
Yes
Irish.

thank you, cool video
“Borgue” is not an American word. It is a place in Scotland. I suspect that the lyric meant “Sup IN borgue in the morning.”
Bergoo is a sort of thick oatmeal gruel eaten by sailors in the 18th/19th century
what's this documentary called?
What language is he speaking?
Guitar tuning looks like 'Open G'; D G D G B D bass to treble.
Aye, open G
Of course the story relates to press gangs who scoured the country for abled body men to fight
