5 out of 5 stars Traditional Celtic music in it's purest form!.......2000-05-20

Clannad's music nowadays ahs much rock and pop music, but in this early album, Clannad did traditional music in it's purest form. The music formed a Celtic atmosphere that did not sound at all like a studio recording. It sounded like traditional music from the far countryside of Ireland. The instruments, such as the harp, whistle, and guitar, freely played and expressed the music. The Celtic feeling touched the soul! It created various moods, like the cheerfulness of "Rince Philib a'Cheoil", the mysteries of love in "Coinleach Ghlas An Fhomar" and "By Chance It Was", and the suspence of "Rince Briotanach" and "Fairly Shot of Her". The music developed a very natural Celtic setting and mood. Maire's wonderful voice strongly emphasized the Gaelic words and Celtic voice, especially in "Coinleach Ghlas An Fhomair" (which is different from the version of Magical Ring). What more can I say? This music is Celtic music in it's purest form and it transports the listener all the way to Ireland!

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Celtic vocals and musicianship!.......1999-03-24

This is early Clannad, from their Celtic, peppy period. Awesome; I'd forgotten how good they can sound!! The vocals work well together -- mellow yet energizing. This and others of their early albums are well worth the seeking out!

5 out of 5 stars Donegal Rocks!.......1999-02-08

Superb album from pre 'Harry's Game' period when group were a more 'Traditional' outfit, but still with modern arrangements Double Bass etc. Great vocals from Mýire and playing all around.
