5.0 out of 5 stars Great Collection of Timeless Irish Music, January 23, 2000

This is a great album. I bought it the first time at a perfomance of Mick Moloney (the main artist), and then gave it to a friend. I agree with the other review that the rendition of Kilkelly on this album is better than on his album "Kilkelly"; but niether can compare to the way Mick Moloney sings it live. A truly great contribution to traditional Irish Music.

4.0 out of 5 stars This version of Kilkelly is more beautiful...., January 14, 2000

There is a gorgeous, haunting song on this album-- Kilkelly--about an old man whose children leave Ireland during a potato famine for a better life. Those of you of irish descent--or with an irish heart--get out your handkerchiefs. Particularly if you've been drinking whiskey or beer. Mick sings like an angel, and this is a better version than the one on his cd entitled Kilkelly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Number One on my "desert isle" list..., June 2, 2003

Just to set the record straight (see the other reviews), the lead singer on "Kilkelly" (on this CD and on the 'Kilkelly' CD) is Robbie O'Connell. Mick Moloney does sing harmony on this song, and a glorious job it is by both of them.
That said, you really need this album. It captures the group Green Fields, comprised of all stellar artists in their own right, at its finest. You will not be disappointed.
