Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: fabulous Comment: I love hearing the old Irish songs my grandparents sung. This was great for my St Patrick's day dinner. Customer Rating: Summary: Casual Listener Comment: I don't listen to a lot of this style of music and am trying it out for the first time. I must say that I like it great to read or tie flies too, if you're into that sort of thing. Customer Rating: Summary: Upbeat! Comment: Clancy bros is always a good choice. This album combines all the music from 2 older releases, good price! Customer Rating: Summary: On time and in great shape. Comment: My order was on time and in great shape. Customer Rating: Summary: Get the reissued versions!!!!! Comment: Just to clarify the music... These tracks come from the first two albums of the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem. They are called "Rising of the Moon" and "Come Fill Your Glass With Us" These tracks were recently reissued on Rykodisc, restored and remastered. Frankly, they sound AMAZING! This complation has terrible sound quality, and the recordings sound like they were copied from an old LP. Don't settle for this ugly sounding reissue, go and check out the remastered versions. Unless you are on a serious budget, get the other discs. Combined, they cost about twice what this costs, but IT IS WORTH IT! More Reviews
Editorial Reviews: If you can find a more stirring collection of Irish ditties, you'd better buy it, but it's doubtful you'll top this budget set. Not with the great Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem doing the honors and a price so low you'll be able to afford an extra pint for your mates. The wind is at your back all the way as the lads avoid chestnuts like "Danny Boy" along with Broadway-Irish show tunes, tearing into "Whack Fol the Diddle" and other "reel" deals instead. Highlights include the weeper "The Croppy Box," roof rattler "Finnigan's Wake," and "The Rising of the Moon," better known for the same-tune political song it spawned, "The Wearing of the Green." Tommy is in beautiful voice on "The Foggy Dew," earning his reputation as one of the best Irish singers of recent decades, and the Clancy Brothers excel on instruments and voice box. --Bob Tarte
