Free Music Notes for The Wolfe Tones Greatest Hits
Free Music Review: Dioltas, Cernunnos! Hoy, gevalt!
Hit: 5 Stars
The Wolfe Tones do lots of illegal sounds, but it's all that cac about OOOoooo, me wee hee-lan laddeeee; that and twang-diddy-twang demi-bluegrass. But the voices are beyond excellent and the musicianship is better than not. People who relish this kind of stuff are like people who like cheese in their coffee: Very rare and with particular tastes. BUT this stuff is just excellent. Too much of it is like too much chocolate or a dinner made completely of marachino cherries: But when you hear the suffering, the stories, the nearly-forgotten and perpetually neglected slavery, genocide of the Celtic N-(white slang for Nigerian)s, as with "Armistad" or "Braveheart" (or the "Passion of Christ"), it fair makes one weep.
BUFFY: (Eating Gile's candy) This is good chocolate. There is NO problem that can't be solved by chocolate---
WILLOW: (Looking ill) Oh---I think i'm gonna barf.
BUFFY: ---except that.
The Wolfe Tones Greatest Hits Poster
The Wolfe Tones got together in the mid-1960s to sing patriotic ballads and rebel songs in the style of vocal groups like the Dubliners and the Clancy Brothers with Tommy Makem. Greatest Hits collects 16 of their best, including "Streets of New York," "God Save Ireland," and "A Nation Once Again." In the early days the group's songs were drawn from the traditional repertoire, but they soon discovered that band member Brian Warfield was a gifted songwriter. Many of the Wolfe Tones' finest songs come from his pen, including "Irish Eyes," "Some Say the Devil is Dead," and the bittersweet ballad, "Dreams of Home." The Wolfe Tones perform these songs with a hearty verve that wouldn't be out of a place at a sing-along at your favorite pub. --Michael SimmonsFolk Music CDs
