Each a master-musician in his own right, Matt, Tommy, and Paul come together on this album to produce a collection of fiery reels, jigs, and hornpipes. The tunes here are from different sources, mainly from Counties Clare, Donegal and Roscommon, and capture the atmosphere of the informal yet spirited sessions that traditional musicians revell in. Superb Irish traditional music from superb Irish traditional musicians.
If there is one instrument which seems tailor-made to complement the consummate flute playing of Matt Molloy, it is the fiddle. Whether playing with Sean Keane or with Tommy Peoples, Matt just seems like he is plugged into another, a greater, source. Paul Brady is not just another sideman. He also sings a definitive version of "The Shamrock Shore", and plays a couple of reels on a brilliant guitar solo. An album for connoisseurs.
