Pure Pleasure

Erica Anderson | Minneapolis, MN | 01/13/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have to admit, I got Celtic Moods for free when I ordered Pure Moods 3 via the telephone therefore didn't have to waste a single penny on it. This cd is excellent. I have been a huge fan of Loreena McKennitt's music for a long time as well as Eleanor McEvoy's so I'm quite familiar with those two artists, along with Sinead O'Connor. I found the melodies hypnotic and transcending. I can definitely get into celtic music after hearing this compilation. I was pleasantly surprised to hear another version of "No Frontier" (which the Corrs covers on their unplugged cd). It didn't dawn on me that this was the same song the Corrs had covered until I heard Mary Black singing it. Other faves include Eleanor McEvoy's "Only A Woman's Heart" and The Edge & Sinead O'Connor's "Heroine". This cd is a must have for fans of Virgin Records' Moods series."

Atmospheric and Very Effective

Erica Anderson | 04/17/1999

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Celtic Moods is part of Virgin's very successful and highly entertaining "Moods" series of CD's. This one is the most different of the bunch, combining both more contemporary, "New-Age" celtic compositions like Clannad's famous "Theme from 'Harry's Game'" with more traditional pieces. Every song is a keeper. Carter Burwell (who wrote the brilliant music for "Fargo") has two wonderful songs at the start of the disc that set the mood perfectly. Other than the Clannad track, you probably haven't heard much of the rest of these songs before, but after hearing "Sleepy Maggie," "Heroine," and "Woodbrook," you won't forget them. Unlike so many compilations that attempt to capture the unique sound and seductive appeal of Celtic music with unsatisfying B-grade music, this one succeeds. It's a keeper."

Another Perspective

Jerome N. Scott | Ft. Wright, KY United States | 02/15/2005

(3 out of 5 stars)

"I have to hand it to the people who compile these CD's for keeping this one real. It is an unfortunate thing that "Celtic" culture has become associated with the New Age movement. Unfortunate because so often what is referred to as Celtic sometimes is so in name only, not to mention the fact that I can't tell people about my passion for it without getting some who roll their eyes. I am pleased to say though that aside from the packaging this is a collection that passes muster as it contains artists who are no less than the genuine article. Granted, Loreena McKennit is Canadian, but she has proven a strong dedication to the genre and when coupled with the likes of Paul Brady, well, let's just say his is a tide which lifts all boats. I recommend this along with any of the Celtic Twilight series as good introductions to this style of music."

In the Celtic mood? This is a great album for you!

""Celtic Moods" is a great compilation album for either the established fan of Celtic music or for the newcomer looking to familiarize herself with all the Celtic music world has to offer.The high points: "Samian Night"---Loreena McKennitt. Loreena is best known for her 1997 hit "The Mummer's Dance." This song, while not as polished as "Mummer's," is still a delight."Strange Boat"---Waterboy."The Gaelic Reels"---Capercaillie. What can be said of legendary Celtic band Capercaillie that hasn't already been said? They are a joy to listen to, an auditory treat."Sleepy Maggie"---Ashley MacIssac."Heroine"---Sinead O'Connor and the Edge. I am personally of the opinion that the Edge & O'Connor don't get the recognition they deserve, so it's only fitting for these two under-appreciated gems to get together. What they've created is a joy."No Frontier"---Mary Black. "Caide Sin Don Te Sin?"---Altan."Ride On"---Christy Moore. This is one of those tunes that gets stuck in your head for days--and you're glad of it!My only complaint is their inclusion of the overplayed "Theme From Harry's Game" by Clannad instead of one of their lesser-known but better-quality tunes.It's a great album....and it'll give ye th' luck o' the Irish! OK, I made that last part up...but it's still a great buy, luck or no luck."
