Fiddler.s Green is best described as the happy land/heaven imagined by sailors where there is perpetual mirth, a fiddle that never stops playing and dancers that never tire.This is intimate music, good for a quiet morning or evening at home. A few solos, a duet, and some spare acoustic ensembles. There.s a good dose of fiddling, and about half of the songs are traditional. Traditional music sometimes seems mysterious, but it.s always familiar. It.s comfortable like an old pair of shoes, and its timeless melodies and themes are the building blocks of the newer songs here.As Louis Armstrong once said, .All music is folk music. I ain.t never heard a horse sing a song... . Tim O'Brien, from the liner notes to Fiddler's Green. Sugar Hill. 2005.
