On Altan’s Finest album, Altan have renewed their membership in the ‘if it ain’t broke…’ school of songwriting. It’s a brave and brilliant refocusing of Altan energies, virtually a rebirth. For older fans Altan’s Finest will put a massive smile accross your face. I wish that “Altan’s Finest” album was instrumental.
is an incredible song that has everything it needs to be another favorite track.
This track is just a stunning masterpiece. Altan offers the kind of music here that makes you reflect on yourself. Moll Dubh A Ghleanna sets the tone for the entire album. One listen to the sheer beauty of Con Cassidy’s Highland Neilly O’boyle’s Highland And Reel was all I needed. A Bhean Udai Thall - arguably the best track on Altan’s Finest album. An Feochan is a good listen every once in a while. The Wedding Jig Hiudai Gallagher’s March is a bit of a show-tune. The sound of Come Ye By Atholl Kitty O’connor is difficult to describe, as it seems to squirm in a sensual manner, unlike anything ever created. |titile| is the kind of record that makes you remember why music can be so addictive. Get Altan’s Finest and turn on Ta Mo Chleamhnas A Dheamamh if you are going to sip your wine late at night. The Lass Of Glenshee - another great track from the Altan’s Finest album. An Tseanchailleach Ghallda Dermot Byrne’s pretty much defines how I feel spiritually. The Cat That Ate The Candle Over The Water To Bessie is really a nice song to relax and listen too.
