Here's a little known gem, that Win has been quoted as calling "the most straightforward thing I've done in years." Part of a 15 CD 'traditional music' series put out by Cracker Barrel, of all things, it's subtitle on the spine reads simply "Irish Jigs, Reels & Songs." I got a copy from Win herself during Rocky Mountain Fiddle Camp 2003, & I really like it! Seamus Egan on flute, banjo, whistle, nylon guitar & bodhran, Donal Clancy on acoustic guitar & bouzouki, Antje Duvekot on some really pretty vocals (she contributed 2 original songs to Edge of Silence, plus backup vocals), & Thomas Bartlett & Keith Murphy as guest musicians, both members of Popcorn Behaviour. Seamus Egan is producer, yielding a gorgeous mix & very traditional acoustic sound. My only complaint is that it's too short.
Really nice surprise!

Lovely CD...I only just found out about it and so I ran out and bought it. The only place to find it is at Crackerbarrel, or in their online store: http://shop.crackerbarrel.com/online/shopping/Product.asp?cat%5Fid=34&sku=766348&mscssid=HQBQV7JTSC8E9L6S578GLXC4X1NL4118
Definitely an album worth getting.
