Customer Reviews:

Still the best.......2004-08-24

This album inspired me to learn 3 instruments: the tin whistle, the guitar, and the hammered dulcimer. I have never heard a dulcimer recording its equal. It will make you want to learn an instrument just so you can share the songs with other people. I would get this record if at all possible

A classic.......2003-09-16

This album is a true classic. This is a must-have album for lovers of celtic, instrumental, and hammer dulcimer music. With me, as for many early fans, this was the album that introduced me to celtic music.

Often labeled as "new age" because "Banish Misfortune" is instrumental, it is a forerunner of that genre. This music is not synthesized or electronic, but instead consists of virtuoso performances of traditional Irish tunes. While this album is melodic, it is not especially mellow. Most of these are dance tunes, and as such are played at dizzying, tempos that inspire one to motion more than to meditation. Highly recommended!
