Warm, creative guitar-based Celtic music

"This is the only Al Petteway cd I own, so I can't compare it w/ his other releases. But I can tell you that it is a very accomplished collection of songs. Most are slow, reflective 'aires' (if that's the right word) which are beautiful. Most are built around Al's guitar playing, often accompanied by bagpipes. Rarely do things 'heat up.' And, finally, there are some sublime, melancholic moments...highly recommended."

"What can I say-Al Petteway has done it again. He has created a CD of calming yet upbeat music. From the 'sweet' "Wild Mountain Thyme," to the beautiful melodies of "Chase the Moon" to the 'haunting' "Phooka" to the upbeat reel of "Wintertide" this CD is not one you want to miss out on!"
