Coming to us out of the USA, a delightful collection of Irish tunes played 'old style' on accordion & melodeon.
And there's a good strong back-up band, getting to ceili at times and that's always good too, to keep the toes tapping.
Oh, and Kevin Burke gets to play fiddle.
So you get the idea. It's a damn fine album.
