""All The Best From Ireland" is a fun, charming and sentimental way to get into the St. Patrick's Day spirit.It's a great mix and fabulous compilation of 20 tracks ranging from spirited numbers that will get your toes to tappin and feet to flying, to sentimental favorites, that you might want to raise a glass to or may even bring a tear to your eye.Even if you are not Irish, you'll find this to be full of very recognizable and much loved tunes to sing along with or dance to. Included you will find "Danny Boy", "It's A Great Day For The Irish", "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling", "I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen","If You're Irish Come Into The Parlour", and "Wearin O' The Green"(see track listings for complete list).With 20 tracks,you'll have enough selection for an entertaining St. Patrick's Day gathering, that can be listened to several times without getting too repetitive. The total time runs about 40-45 minutes.My review is of the audio tape but it is also available on CD.The music and the vocals are really nice, unfortunately there is no info on the artists. This recording by Madacy is not exactly top of the line, but the music is so charming and so much fun to listen to I hardly noticed, and for the price you can hardly go wrong.For St. Patricks's Day, or if you just love these favorite Irish tunes, check this one out and maybe a little o' the luck will come your way!...and enjoy...Laurie"
