Originally released in 2008, and featuring David Surette and Seamus Connolly, this is a fine recording with simple arrangements -- usually two, and sometimes three pieces. There are not enough ITM recordings featuring the mandolin, in my opinion, so an intersting and well-done recording with mandolin-zouk, or mandolin- zouk-fiddle are always welcome. If you are unfamiliar with these names, the players are first-rate. I've been listening to this one for six months and still find it very enjoyable . . . I have done more than JUST listen to this in the past six months, of course.
