In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I was about three years old. My dad had bought some Clancy Brothers LPs and I remember there distinctive Aran sweaters. On one of the albums there was a song called Brennan on the Moor. I thought it was about my uncle whose name was Johnny Brennan. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Clifford T.
