1.0 out of 5 stars The Vow by Druidstone is a much better choice, January 1, 2002

This review is from: Irish Wedding Songs (Audio CD)

While I was doing research for my book - The Traditional Irish Wedding - I wanted to be able to recommend as much authentic Irish music as possible for both the ceremony and the reception.

The book came about because our daughter wanted a celebration reflective of her roots; we ended up with all Irish music for the ceremony, including a Celtic Mass. The same was true of the reception. There is so much great Irish music available that the problem for most couples will be deciding what to include and what to leave out. Except for The Irish Wedding Song and My Wild Irish Rose, it's my opinion that this particular CD is misleading as to its name and content.

2.0 out of 5 stars The Title is Misleading, November 14, 2000

This review is from: Irish Wedding Songs (Audio CD)

I purchased the CD for 1 song, The Irish Wedding Song. It is beautiful. Outside of this track, there are maybe 2 other songs worth listening to, When You Were Sweet Sixteen and I Love You Because. This should not be billed as an Irish CD. Very little Irish about it. It is more country than Irish and has very little to do with a wedding.

If there is such a thing as Irish country music, then this is the worst form of it. I was expecting instrumentals or something appropriate to play at a wedding. There is not one good song on this CD and there is definitely nothing here that can be played at a wedding. The title is definitely misleading.
