The music I want to hear when I'm dead

"An odd title for a review, perhaps, but true none-the-less. As I am lowered into the grave, let a solitary piper play "Dream Angus" and I will rest content. The Weavers have captured something on a very visceral level here; while some of the songs are tongue-in-cheek and some are quite energetic, all tap into an undercurrent of longing that is so much a part of the Celtic soul. If you want music that will make you misty-eyed, buy this album. If you want music that will make you dance with anticipation of what the new day holds, buy this album. If you want music that will make you want to cross the border and steal English cattle, buy this album."

Always Great Music
