Negative Positive
Title: Sappy and derivative
Review: I will say up-front that I am a lover of Irish music as expressed in the A Woman's Heart series, for instance. I found in the music of this Celtic Thunder not only not really Celtic, but derivative and commercial to the nth degree, though I agree, everyone has a very nice voice. I was duly warned by a negative review on this site, but bought it anyway and left it at the local Free-cycle spot immediately. I rated the CD one star for lack of an alternative. There was another group also called Celtic Thunder in the 1980's, and their CD "The Light Of Other Days" is just wonderful and just the ticket for a dour purist like myself.
Is the review positive or negative?
