Absolute gold

On this lovely CD, Claire's first "solo" recording, she is joined on fiddle on four tracks by long-time collaborator Liam Lewis. Lewis and Keville are great exponents of the Paddy Fahey repertoire, and here we get five wonderful Fahey tunes, as well as a powerful version of Paddy Kelly's four-part reel. There are also two tracks with Claire's sister Breda on fiddle and Terence O'Reilly on guitar, as well as three tracks on which Claire plays the harpsichord. Geraldine Cotter plays piano on many of the tracks.

Joe Ryan's

This links to wrong tune - it is actually http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/7028
also known as "O'Reilly of AithCairne"
Great album I agree

Madame Bonaparte

This also links to wrong tune
Should be http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/2372 which is actually a set dance known as "Bonaparte's Retreat", or just "The Retreat"
I love the clean, simple delivery of the tunes on this album - lovely concertina playing
