CD Reviews

The standard by which all celtic music should be judged

Martha J. Rozkydal | Palmer, Alaska | 07/11/1998

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The Clancy Brothers have been around for many years, and this collection includes some of their earliest recordings. It is still as good as it was when it was first released. They sing with unmatched enthusiasm. The accompaniment is always secondary to the superb voices, the songs chosen are a good mix of comic and poignant, rolicking and beautiful. Listen to them all from the rueful Whiskey, You're the Devil, to the mournful Lowlands of Holland. If you have never heard them, you are in for a treat, if you are a longtime fan, you may rediscover old favorites."
