For this 1988 release, now made available on CD, ex-Chieftain whistle player Sean Potts was joined by his son, the great piper Sean Og Potts, and other excellent musicians from Dublin who had toured with him to raise money for the pipers' association Na Piobaire Uilleann. The result was gorgeous music with a sound which one would immediately identify with the Chieftains' early releases.
