5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Music, July 27, 2000

Same as the other person that wrote a review. I had bought this tape about eight ago and it was incredible. Unfortunetly, it broke and I have been trying to find its replacement ever since. I am thrilled to finally find it. This CD is relaxing but not depressing. Most Irish/Celtic music is either depressing that you'll cry listening to it or is to upbeat and somewhat harsh to the ears. Emerald Castles is all instrumental with Guitars, Harpsichord, Recorder, Oboe and Percussion.

I got this CD several years ago and it one of my favorites. It's upbeat but relaxing music helps keep me going when I'm working on a large project around the house or just relaxing. My copy is in fact getting damaged thanks to my kids (teens) playing it also so I'm glad to be able to find another copy. Great gift for someone who likes a steady beat or theme to their music (ie: pop or disco). Great clasical dancing music also!!

Seriously, owning this CD is like owning the Holy Grail of Celtic Guitar. My parents originally bought this CD for me. I was immediately hooked. It was like a religious experience and I listened to it every day for like a year. Then it was stolen when some punks broke into the car. I missed that CD more than anything. What was worse is that I still had the case. I finally found it on Amazon and bought another copy. I'm so thrilled to have it again. This is great! It's like listening to a Celtic Bard playing for you in a stone castle. It's very dynamic and traditional sounding. It has upbeat jig style tracks and sorrowful breathy tracks. This CD is MUST have for Celtic fanatics. You will not be disappointed. I'm going to go listen to my copy right now.
