    Rioghnach has a beautiful huskiness to her voice. And the instrumentalists, guitarists, bassist, violinist, all complement each other so well. Each finding spaces to express themselves.

      To be honest this is a wonderfully executed Dick Gaughan arrangement of this song. Despite what the credits says above "Arrangement by Ríoghnach Connolly & Ellis Davies" this is exactly Dick's arrangement right down to his exact guitar lines. That takes nothing away from Ríoghnach Connolly's stunning singing.
