Nine of these songs have never been available on vinyl before.

Chronicles: 60 Years Of The Chieftains is a stunning career retrospective featuring tracks from across the band's discography, from their first album, Chieftains 1, through their most recent studio album, Voice Of Ages.

“Over the last few months Paddy was instrumental in putting the Chronicles project together —whether it was choosing versions of a recording to include, working on the track list, or approving the artwork—he really enjoyed being involved and it meant so much to him seeing this come together on Claddagh Records, The Chieftains first-ever record label, and one which Paddy ran for several years, producing much of its catalogue. We are so happy that he got to see the final version. The album is a fitting tribute to Paddy and The Chieftains.” - The Moloney Family and The Chieftains.

Heavyweight double vinyl produced by Claddagh Records in 2021. Made in Czech Republic.
