Sweeney's Men is an album by Sweeney's Men,[1] recorded in early 1968 after 'Galway Joe' Dolan had left the band and been replaced by Terry Woods.[2]{{rp|75–77}}

Johnny Moynihan contributed "Rattlin' Roarin' Willy"—a song written by Robbie Burns and set to the slip jig rhythm (9/8)—and also Pecker Dunne's "Sullivan John", which had previously been sung by Dolan before he left the band.[2]{{rp|75}} Moynihan also sang "Dicey Riley" and "The Handsome Cabin Boy", which he learnt from the singing of A.L. Lloyd.[3] "Johnston" is Moynihan's version of the tale of sinister murder also known as "Three Huntsmen", listed as entry H185 in Sam Henry's collection, Song the People[4]{{rp|128}}[5]Andy Irvine contributed the sea shanty "Sally Brown", which he learnt from a Library of Congress recording of an old sailor in a Seamen's Home in Virginia. He also recorded the ballad "Willy O' Winsbury", the lyrics of which he learned from Child's English and Scottish Popular Ballads, and which he set to a different air.[2]{{rp|75}} Irvine also covered the English folk song "Dance to Your Daddy", along with the Irish traditional song "Reynard The Fox", which celebrates a fox chase that took place in 1793.[3]Terry Woods brought the well-known American ballad "Tom Dooley" and also the southern ballad "The House Carpenter", based on a recording by Clarence Ashley.[2]{{rp|76}} Woods also composed new music for "My Dearest Dear", a song by Peggy Seeger.[3]

Moynihan and Irvine learnt the slip jig "The Exile's Jig" from a group of traditional musicians based in Dublin called Ceoltóirí Chualann, led by Seán Ó Riada.[3]

The album was re-released on CD in 1996, packaged together with Sweeney's Men second album, The Tracks of Sweeney.[6]
