Couldn't agree with you more, definitely one of the most distinct male vocal of a generation.
Definitely worth watch this documentary on his life, done by RTE a few years ago. Rather than clogging things up,I am putting up part 1 of 12. You can easily link to rest from the first part.

A fantastic song is Spancil Hill with a good version done by Ronnie Drew and Shane MacGowan on the Late Late Show, cant find it though.
More up to date is the Rubber Bandits fantastic song "Horse Outside"
