5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful singing, playing, and arrangements, November 21, 1999

I have been listening to traditional Scottish and Irish music for more than 20 years, and Cherish the Ladies is one of the most exciting bands I've heard. "Threads of Time" is my first exposure to the band. The arrangements are exquisite. The band is true to the Gaelic tradition, provactive, and innovative. I especially like their rendition of the Yeats poem (far more than the author's).

5.0 out of 5 stars One of their best!, June 14, 1998

This review is from: Threads of Time (Audio CD)

I just bought this CD and already it is one of my favorite CTL albums, despite the lack of a single song in Gaelic. This album is a beautiful blend of traditional tunes and original pieces, and while I miss Cathy Ryan, I must say that Aoife Clancy has an amazing and beautiful voice!

These six women are award-winning musicians. Daughters of immigrants or immigrants themselves, their voices and instruments reverberate with their deep love of Irish music and of their own heritage. If you have not yet experienced Cherish the Ladies, this is a great place to start!

5.0 out of 5 stars Toe tapping music to get you going, September 19, 1999

After see Cherish the Ladies in concert with our local symphony, we bought this CD and have loved the music ever since. After we got into Riverdance, we were looking for other Irish tunes and found the Ladies.

Their music is soulful and uplifting and alway makes me want to start stepping! Try this CD, you'll love it!
