CD Reviews

A definitive introduction to one of Ireland's finest

Joe Sixpack -- Slipcue.com | ...in Middle America | 12/31/2005

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Irish accordionist Sharon Shannon is one of the great modernizers in contemporary Celtic music... This 2-CD set greatly expands on her previous best-of collections, adding a second disc's worth of collaborations with pop, folk and country stars, including Jackson Browne, Steve Earle, Donal Lunny, Sinead O'Connor, John Prine and the late Kirsty MacColl. Shannon zips between traditional-sounding folk and boundary-pushing Celtic-fusion... She may make more conservative folk fans grumpy, but listeners looking for innovation have rallied around her for years. Regardless of where you stand on her aesthetic choices, it's hard to fault her technical expertise -- Shannon is one of the most dazzling players in Celtic music today. This is hte perfect introduction to her work."

True Irish Pub Music

C. Tennent | Campbell, NY USA | 11/29/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I bought this CD in Galway Ireland before it was released in the states and have listened to it ever since. If you have a love of the music found in the pubs of Ireland, you will have a deep appreciation for this recording. Her mix of instruments produces a lively blend of sounds and harmony - a jazzy intertwining of themes and textures."
