Synopsis

Product Description
Olde Irish Jigs and Reels. Sparkling performances from some of our leading folk musicians in medleys of great Irish tunes. Feet will be tapping within seconds, in a powerful evocation of the spirit of Ireland expressed through its music. This selection of Irish music was performed specially for this recording by some leading exponents of the style. You can hear this in their steady rhythms, clear melodies - a foot-tapping pleasure if ever there was one. So if you feel like dancing, then this is the album for you! In between the jigs, reels, hornpipes and polkas, there is a selection of Irish songs, all sung by Ian Giles with stylish accompaniment from the three main instruments used on the recording. But when they play their instrumental interludes, beware: the feet will have to start tapping all over again! It's irresistible. I had the same feeling of joy I got from recording sea shanties with these musicians. Their musical zest and sheer exuberance is irresistible. I hope that you enjoy this album as much. Jon Boden fiddle, Joey Oliver whistle, John Spiers melodeon, Ian Giles - voice and bodrhàn
