Title: A little bit of music....
Review: The disturbing thing about this CD of Irish/UK/US/Canadian patriotic music is that it is only 26 minutes long. John McDermott could have recorded it during the intermission of a hockey game or his lunch break. The liner notes have all of the verses for each anthem, but McDermott only chooses to sing one verse of each. He is in good voice, but the backup group sounds like a bass, trumpet and electric guitar. Surely this type of music deserves the Toronto Symphony Orchestra and not a garage band. The best cuts are America the Beautiful and Auld Lang Syne. This is the shortest full priced CD I've seen since I started collecting in 1985. I cannot recommend this unless you are a John McDermott groupie.
Is the review positive or negative?
