A fine musician leading an incredible band. I heard the Chieftans for the first time in the late 70's on John Peel and was entranced.

Very very sad loss.
The Chieftans, great in their own right, and Irish Heartbeat with Van Morrison is excellent.

Wasn’t just his role leading The Chieftains, Paddy was responsible for so much involving Irish folk music, from running & producing for Claddagh. Rest in a peaceful air Paddy.2
