Such a brilliant album. Sparkling, crystal clear play and the musicians are obviously in a perfect musical relationship with each other. Their efforts are pure pleasure to listen to. Buy it!

Hello Aidan, I purchased your new album in April and have enjoyed playing the download. When the it arrived in the post there was no physical CD inside the case. I have been promised a replacement but have still not received anything. I only need the CD - I have the case. Obviously I can create a CD from the download, but that’s not the point. Hope you can help. Best wishes, Martin D’Arcy

Absolutely sensational - love the generally low-end tones and planxty-esque set up, but most of all the incredible energy of it! Wish more instrumental trad was like this, love the fact that it's recorded live too.

Two of my favorite musicians. I'm so happy to hear this album, and super-happy to hear Mr. McGoldrick on the pipes again!
