We think it's fair to say that this is a 'session' and equally fair to add that it's not a 'normal session'.
To get a line-up like this would be a one-in-a million chance, maybe back stage at a folk festival.
Also, for a live event, it's really well produced.
Yep! This is a big winner for all lovers of folk music.
