5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely Voices and Melodies, May 29, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Best of the Thistle & Shamrock 1 (Audio CD)

This CD is worth it just for Maura O'Connell's version of "The Water Is Wide". It makes my heart stop evertime I hear it. The other songs are also wonderful - complex and soothing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Compilation of the best Celt, April 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Best of the Thistle & Shamrock 1 (Audio CD)

Celtic music is a tradition that is just now beginning to sweep America, and a passion shared by millions. Obviously it would be impossible to include all of Celt's greatest songs on one compact disc, but if it had to be done, Thistle and Shamrock is it. This disc has everything from suspensful bagpipe concertos, to soothing fiddles and the sounds of "suil a ruin." I recommend this collection to ANYONE who appreciates Celtic music for the elite art that it is. If you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me.
