FIRST HEARING:
Nice steady tempo allowing maximum expression. Clean, clear playing that is not overpowered by the accompaniment.
Martin features on pipes and whistle on the CD
The booklet suggests a broader repertoire than normal uilleann albums, including vocals and other tasteful accompaniment.
Enjoy.
