“Mairi's Wedding (AKA The Lewis Bridal Song) is a spritely Hebridean tune that'll get your feet tapping. Great for any ceili or feis. Banjo adds a nice touch to traditional Celtic music.”

“Loch Lomond is one of those oldies but goodies that's always sweet on the ears. Neil's great tenor voice is well suited for Scottish folk songs. His straightforward presentation really suits these ballad style folk songs.”

“This is a rousing Irish drinking song with lots of sing along whack fol the daddios, good for any ceili.”

“My grannie left Eire from Cobh. Neil's rousing rendition of this Irish Immigrant song reflects its sea chanty roots. Great sound mix. Gabriel Duffin's banjo is great too.”

“This song was sung in my family because of the Bantry Bay reference. The pluckiness of the banjo ties it to the American folk tradition.”

Street Cred: 359 Rec's: 24
“Wild Mountain Thyme, a traditional, if crass, 17th c. free love song, emerged on the '60s folk scene, made popular by Joan Baez and Judy Collins. I was irritated when they changed the words but that's the nature of folk songs, to continually grow and adapt to the times. Neil's version evokes an earlier time, of real lonesome cowboys around the campfire kissing nothing more than the lips of their harmonicas. Gabriel Duffin's mandolin back up is a sweet addition.”
