Album Notes

An album from accordion player Charlie Piggott and fiddle player Gerry Harrington. The balance, sweetness and depth of tradition to be heard is only what one would expect from two such master musicians. Although the tunes played come from the traditional repertoire, the rare versions and imaginative interpretations radiate a fresh, unique feel. With guest musicians Johnny ‘Ringo’ Mc Donagh, Eugene Kelly and Seán Ó Loingsigh.

A terrific unison of unadorned fiddle and accordion. Dreamy for its absence of pumped-up tempo and top-end megahertz, this is truly sweet music…
- The Sunday Tribune

…lovely instrumental tones…an exemplary program of tunes…Definitely not to be missed
- Dirty Linen
