Recorded Live in Ireland is a 1965 album of Irish folk songs performed by The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem. It was the first live album to be recorded in stereo in Ireland. It was their sixth LP for Columbia Records and, unusually for the group, included two newly composed songs in the folk style. Music critic Joe Goldberg wrote the liner notes.

The album contained the first recording of "Lament for Brendan Behan," a recently composed tribute to the late Irish author, Brendan Behan, whom the Clancys had personally known. Tommy Makem wrote "The Curlew's Song" for the album. Two more songs, "Butcher Boy" and "Beggar Man" (a.k.a. "The Little Beggarman"), Makem learned from his mother, Sarah, a source singer for folk song collectors. The sound fades briefly at the end of "Beggar Man" when Makem danced a jig onstage as the audience cheered. The group learned "Wild Rover" from Luke Kelly of The Dubliners, with whom they were friends. They sang the number "Wella Wallia" (a.k.a. "Weile Waile" and "The River Saile") for laughs, using fake Dublin accents to the delight of the audience. As was standard in their concerts, Tom Clancy recited the opening line's of James Joyce's novel, Finnegans Wake before the group sang "New Finnegan's Wake."

Billboard chose the album as a "Special Merit Pick." The magazine's reviewer called the album "a happy package, packed with lots of folk zing." The reviewer also noted how the group had "an exuberant audience for their exuberant style" during the live concert.
