Album Description "Eclectic is a word much over-used in folk music, but how else to describe an album that includes centuries-old Gaelic as well as selections by Stan Rogers, Dido and Kate Bush? Nearly every song on this album deals with a journey, whether from across the sea or back from the grave; each song is about choice and living with the consequences. Though it has been nearly eight years since The Browne Sisters and George Cavanaugh recorded their last studio album, the astonishing variety of songs collected here, the inventive arrangements, the strength and clarity of the vocals guarantee that their journey has not been wasted--and that their choices are sure to please.

CD ReviewsReady For The Storm J. Ehret | Killeen, Texas USA | 11/18/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "What a great opportunity for me to listen to a group that I had not heard before and then share it with you all. I am not a musician but an appreciator of Celtic/Irish/Scots music. It is all I listen to these days. What a lovely sound the Browne sisters make with their music, the adding the voice of George Cavanaugh as well as others who contributed to this CD.. I would be hard put to pick a favorite from this group of songs. They are all very well done. I just hope that one day the Browne Sisters and George C. will make it to Texas so I can see them live. This is a excellent CD.." Celtic music at its best! Eponaluna | Dallas, TX | 11/06/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "This kind of album is why I listen to Celtic music! It ranges the full emotional gamut from heartbreaking to exhilirating. I had not heard of George Cavanaugh and the Browne Sisters before this and had some reservations at first. Generally, when a group has multiple lead vocalists there is at least one that is just not as strong as the others. That does not seem to be the case at all with this group. Although I found myself particularly drawn to George Cavanaugh's rich voice, the ladies also do a beautiful job, each with a distinct sound of her own, but capable of blending together quite nicely. The version of Spancil Hill found here is flat out, no question, the best I have heard and Bonnie Portmore is right up there. This Land Is Mine touches a very personal note and I was hard put not to start crying the first time I really listened to it. Overall, I'm putting this solidly in my top ten of Celtic CDs and highly recommend it to anyone with a love of the genre! - Cara Barker " If You Like Celtic pop get this now Jerry Guinn | Concord, CA, USA | 11/13/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "The Browne Sisters and George Cavanaugh represent fresh and spirit harmonies. If the listener loves harmony and an energy that is captivating this CD is for you. The title song is worth the music in the first place."
