Product Description

Over their years of travel, The Boys of the Lough have met and played with many fine musicians from their home countries and the related traditions of Canada and the United States. Here they play music with some of these people. The result is the unique celebration of what traditional music is all about - playing a few tunes with (and for) some friends.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very impressive, diverse sound, September 8, 1999

By A Customer

Boys of the Lough in Good Friends, Good Music captures the true essence and spirit of traditional Celtic music. From Scottish Highland music to Shetland style fiddling, they explore and illustrate the diversity and influence of the Celtic tradition on a variety of regions. All in all a very wholesome, pleasing sound. This was my first Boys of the Lough CD, and I was very pleased.
