Sp?

Not in my collection yet.

Online sources have conflicting spellings for gCuach and a' Ghleanna. Also, Geoff Wallis write-up on Irish Music Review says the "liner notes are riddled with typographical errors" such as omitted apostrophes and misspellings.

I can't vouch for the correctness of the list, but I'm eager to hear this "staggeringly excellent album".

This is an excellent album. Not really "by Danu"; more "by members of Danu". The showcasing of individual talents proves that as well as having the ensemble playing off to a very unique T, the lads and lass are great stylists as well. What do you make of Benny's version of "The Moving Cloud"? Worth the admission on its own, I reckon!

by the way, track N°13 is not the King of the Fairies..but the king of the Pipers!!!

I gotta get this and the first album then my Danu collection will be complete.

Now only the first album is left.
I love this album I am listening to it right now. Aidan Benny's version of "The Moving Cloud" is great I like the track where Muireann plays whistle great version of "Sean Sa Cheo."

Thanks to today's "session mail" from 'c', Track 13's first tune is changed from King of the Fairies (how it appears on the liner notes) to King of the Pipers. I see now that paul95 noted that 3.5 years ago. I'm slow.
