Three years for an answer. I had the album on cassette several years ago. "Interesting" is the word. I'd buy it again just for Eileen Ivers on Track 10 - Paddy Fahy's/Green Fields of Antrim/Star of Munster - which, for me, is the best piece of fiddling ever.
Couldn't agree more - had this on a battered old tape for about 10 years and keep coming back to it for the Eileen Ivers set of 3 reels. The most astonishing, raw and gutsy bit of Irish fiddle I have ever heard...
comments please....who is on this recording? Is it good?
