CD Reviews

One song on this CD is worth the price of the whole thing!

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Aine Meenaghan's This night is dark (In Irish) is wonderful. I have often wondered why no record company in America has seen fit to issue a CD comprised entirely of traditional Irish singers who reside in the US. Of all the Irish musical styles it is perhaps the purest, but for some strange reason the least exposed and understood. Surely there are enough great singers in Chicago, Boston, New York, etc. to produce many CDs. As for this one, this one song convinced me it was a great purchase."
