Free Music Review: Best Irish Recording I Have Heard So Far
Hit: 5 Stars
I have a collection of Irish music CDs from the Irish Rovers, the Clancy Brothers - with and without Tommy Makem, The Chieftains, Bing Crosby, the Jolly Beggerman, and various Irish artists. I love them all, but when I listened to this CD I immediately became a big Dubliners fan, though I admit to knowing very little about them. On some tracks, the lead singer is a tenor, while on others a bass. I can hear their Irish accents which is a big plus. There are 20 tracks on the CD and quite varied from the marching Rocky Road to Dublin and The Gentleman Soldier (track 11 on my disk) to the gentleness of Fields of Athenry and Carrickfergus. They even do Seven Drunken Nights but only sing the first five verses as the other two would not be appropriate for mixed company. They also have two instrumentals, the first being a beautiful number played on a fiddle called The Marino Waltz which I would love to hear performed on flute by James Galway, and the more-rousing The Mason's Apron. It was a mixture of songs I knew such as Finnegan's Wake, The Irish Rover and The Wild Rover, and new songs such as the haunting Dirty Old Town and The Town I Loved So Well. Two are done a capella - The Auld Triangle which is also titled The Royal Canal on other CDs, and Monto. Since playing it, I have not played very many of my other Irish CDs. Whenever I feel like listening to Irish music, which is most of the time, I almost always put on The Dubliners Ultimate Collection. I highly recommend it to all who either love Irish music, or want to experience it.
