Title: Terrific playing.. . terrific production
Review: This is first-rate Irish playing on the flute and whistle. One of my favorite flute/whistle records ever.Humor and virtuosity abound... check out Nugent's unusual version of "Tatter Jack Walsh" in the first track with f naturals and c-sharps... I love the transition from the 5th track, which, like most tracks on this CD, is a carefully-orchestred studio production with guitar bass and percussion, to the 6th track, which features a very low-tech sounding recording with just two flutes belting out three terrific single reels with Kevin Henry. The third track, "Sean Ryans Hornpipes" features whistle and cello to great effect, which I haven't heard before. The transition on track 6 from the first jig to the second is spectacular, as is the playing in general on all the tracks... ever whistle trick in the book comes out on track 10.I couldn't recommend this one more!
