Ursula's Crow The depth of Eoghan's voice mixed with the soar of Ultan's fiddle. Favorite track: Tá na Páipéir dhá Saighneáil.

paulroe Love this CD

shanerty An incredible album that holds its own against against any other other trad album of the last ten years. The droney ambiance and edginess of Lankum meets the lyricism, atmosphere and enchantment of the Gloaming. I only hear this album for the first time a coupe of days ago and I am hooked. Every listen exposes new layers. Favorite track: The Light of the Day.

Absolutely love that deep concertina sound. And the range of expression that Cormac brings out through this instrument, well beyond the intentions of the designers or makers of these instruments. And, feel sorry for his poor bellows and reeds. He has to do a lot of personal repair on them. Cormac's album design and presentation are beautiful works of art as well. See him in concert if you can. You can really feel those bass notes resonate through a hall. balinsky
