"Irishman Pat Kilbride is a virtuoso on fingerstyle guitar and bouzouki. This CD collects his first 2 recordings and offers a great set of trad Irish tunes and songs arranged in his unique and adept way. This is a must for all trad Irish music fans, especially guitar or zouk oriented ones."

"I don't know why Pat Kilbride isn't more popular in the Celtic music world. His guitar/cittern/etc. work is 2nd to none. This album combines his two early albums, including some terrific work while he was in Belgium. The mix of tunes is excellent - ranging from some hypnotic legend-telling tunes at the beginning to some traditional reels, a cover of a Sting song (traditionally arranged), and some creative use of African rythms.I also recommend his other solo albums and work with Kip's Bay, though those have a more modern feel, which is quite good, too."
