A wonderful instrumental album featuring the piping of Tommy Keane and the Clare-style concertina playing of Jacqueline McCarthy, with the exquisite and typically restrained bouzouki accompaniments of De Dannan's Alec Finn. Jacqueline's father Tommy McCarthy, himself a lovely player of both uilleann pipes and concertina, makes a guest appearance as well.
