Recordings started 'in session' in 2005 and finished 'in dance hall' in 2014 so we get 'feet' and 'applause' as well as the stunning musical style of Cape Breton. Fine, fine fiddle playing driven along by Cape Breton piano, and few are better than Tracey Dares MacNeil, make for great traditional fare.
