Ireland has a tremendous heritage of uniquely passionate music and that particular charm is communicated here in ways that rise above cliche. Key moments are Brian Houstonis earthy voice, Joanne Hoggis haunting rendition of "I Wonder As I Wander", Robin Mark's excellent "Take Us To The River" and Andy Rogers' poetic "I Have Come To Realise". Standard use of acoustic and electric guitars, flutes and whistles and bvs (with special thanks to one Alvin Stardust of all people) are played to perfection and help to evoke the mellow, soothing beauty of the emerald isle.
