 Review
One of the finest albums of Irish music with Irish instruments such as uilleann pipes, whistles and flutes but with a very modern rock twist. Wonderful melodies and atmospheric songs, super harmonies between Martin Furey's voice and that of his sister Áine. Her voice is simply divine and his is haunting and perfectly tuned to the rock medium.

It's a continuous amazement to me that this band weren't snapped up and promoted to be bigger than the most commercial of Irish bands you could imagine. It's a story of corporate greed and big music business attempting to crush musical talent by trying to rip them off and squeeze them in directions the artists had no intention of going in. What is left is a selection of tracks which are often sampled and held up as being the best of Irish Rock. And that is what they surely are. There isn't a bad track on the album.

As a footnote, and not the most important part of this review, Martin and Áine are the third generation of professional performers in the Furey family. Their father is Finbar Furey, the piper of the family and successful entertainer of many decades. Their grandfather was Ted Furey, who performed as a fiddler across Europe and who had records of his own released in Ireland, France and Germany.
