"Paul Brock and Enda Scahill capture the very core of Irish music: the rhythm, the passion, the excitement and most of all, the integrity. Only great musicians can do this". - Gerry O 'Connor (musician)
"Humdinger… an album alive with powerful rhythms delivered by musicians who play with dazzling virtuosity and precision". - Martin Hayes (musician)
I asked Paul Brock himself, but wasn't sure either! Here's his reply:
"I unfortunately dont have names on the tunes. I understand that they come from the repertoire of an accordion maker/ musician called Marcel Mercervier who lived in a place called Montmagny near Quebec city. Not much help but that's as much as I know. Great tunes.
With Best Wishes

I've been waiting for this album. The preview clip on their website sounds good. Time to start saving pocket money!
