Celtic Mystique -- More information!, July 6, 2008
This review is from: Celtic Mystique (Audio CD)
I've noticed that Amazon doesn't appear to have the artists listed anywhere in their descriptions for this here or the non-U.S.A. available versions (available elsewhere, such as amazon.co.uk, amazon.co.de, etc.)
After some homework, I finally located all the titles' artists, and thought I'd share:
1. MacIain Of Glencoe - Moira Kerr
2. The Heather, She Grows/Island Spinning Song - Elyra Campbell
3. Danny Boy - Sheila Ryan
4. Circle Of Stone - Laura Powers
5. On Heaven's Shore - Mae McKenna
6. Ancient Souls - Gabrielle Angelique
7. Oran Leannan Sithe - Anne Martin
8. Homes Of Donegal - Sharon Murpny
9. Prayer For St. Symin- Jennifer Parsignault
10. Highlands - Darby DeVon
11. Loch Lomond - Jennifer White
12. Bird Of Paradise - Pippa Marland
I know there are a number of beautiful works here, and I - for one - like being able to get more from artists I enjoy. Hopefully this will help others do likewise, despite U.S. Amazon no longer carrying the title new.

Heart warming, May 29, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Celtic Mystique (Audio CD)
Featuring a mix of both familiar favorites and new songs this album is one of the best I've found this year. The various artists beautifully compliment each other. The music is calming as well as heart-warming. Don't be surprised if some of these bring a tear to your eye as they stir up some of your own memories.

A musical pass-and-review of our old traditions, March 9, 2003
This review is from: Celtic Mystique (Audio CD)
Celtic Mystique is most especially valuable for its thrilling rendition of "The Homes of Donegal." If the listener has any Irish blood in him, or if his ethnic background formerly held traditions of friendship and hospitality, then the song will warm his heart--and then break it.
For that tradition is gone; we gave it up when we chose materialism, and today you can scarce find anyone who will give you the time of day for no charge. Even Donegal and surrounding environs has become commercialized, capitalising on the natural beauty of the Irish coast and on memories of the ancient traditions.
But, while it lasts, the music will put images in your head. Mother stirring a pot at the stove. Sister pouring your tea. Father hoisting a hoe over his shoulder, with a grin and a jest, heading off toward the garden. And all of them being as gracious to the guest as ever White people were.
