5.0 out of 5 stars A classic recording, May 7, 2003

This review is from: Doublin (Audio CD)

For lovers of Irish folk music this album is a must. Paddy Glackin, a master fiddler, and Paddy Keenan, arguably among the greatest uilleann pipers, display their brilliance on this album. This is folk recording, unpolished but pure. For pipers and fiddlers, this recording is a source of study; for Irish music fans, it's a testament to the power of the Irish folk music tradition. Thank goodness it has finally been issued on CD; I've worn out my tape.

This album is a must for Irish music fans. The two Paddies are in fine form here. Paddy Keenan's piping is expressive and technically brilliant and Paddy Glackin's fiddling is precise with beautiful tone. Uillean pipe fans will appreciate Paddy Keenan's use of the regulators on such tracks as "The Bunch of Keys" and "The Bucks of Oranmore." The two Paddies can play either sedately and with swing or full-on with all pistons firing. This album is a classic.
