Title: Drowning in the Great Big Sea...
Review: This is a fun, well-crafter cd. Great Big Sea offer great fun in tunes like the energetic "I'm A Rover" to solemn moments as in the excellent "Boston and St. Johns" and "Feel it Turn".This band is the best celtic band out there now and do a great job of mixing traditional celtic tunes with their own songs. One of the best things about this cd, and their music in general, is the imagery they present. You almost feel like you know what being a sailor in Newfoundland singing jaunty tunes is like."Turn" and "Rant and Roar" (a kind of best of up until a few years ago) have what I think are their finest moments. "Rant and Roar" has a better range of their classic Irish tunes ("Lukey", "Mari-Mac")whereas "Turn" has a better mix to old and new. With either of these cds, or for that matter any by Great Big Sea, you won't go wrong. You'll find your legs bouncing and your lips movin'.
