    That just brought tears to my eyes and I couldn't hold it in! My God I love music that does that. And Celtic music does it to me all the time, I was born in Germany and raised in Utah, USA. Doesn't matter who you are, this music is magical.

      Agree ... only quibble is I would have preferred the guitar mike'd rather than plugged in. Guitar tone has a bit of that "buzzy" edge characteristic of plugged in.

    Impeccable twin whistling! I couldn't distinguish the two gentlemen, until one would peal off. I don't know if people understand the difficulty, in the statement I just made- but their half-holing, rolling, all of it, matched up.. well, impeccably. That was a joy to listen to!
    One thing I wish more might do? list the instruments they play! Key, Style, etc. And all involved, too. Unsure if there are.. what? Commercial issues, in regards to money or whatever, as the reason we don't see it very often, but it would sure be awesome if they could.

      Lately I've turned to Trad Irish before bed. Even the faster jigs and reels are hypnotic with their twisting, flowing, unpredictable melodies. Easy for the mind to let go into a timeless beauty. Flutes and whistles with guitar or harp are best for this, I find.

Praise God for the joy that Michael McGoldrick, John McCusker & John Doyle have shared, and for working through the equipment and algorithms that make it accessible to many. Wish I could have listened to them prior to learning the recorder as a child. Also, when possible remember to support local musicians.
