"THERE'S NO BETTER MUSIC"
author: IRISH WAYS PROGRAMME WILLIAM RAMOUTAR
There's great music here! Irish music played the way it's meant to be. Tim has gathered a selection of his nearest and dearest Pals to help out, on a marvellously Traditional sounding Seisúin in it's finest sense. Utilizing Fiddle, Bodhrán, Uilleann Pipes, Low Whistle and Tim's superb accompanying Guitar, as well as four expertly crafted songs. This, his third cd will leave you looking for the other two he has and you won't be disappointed. There is such a warmth and a welcoming sound to his work. The tunes used are given a very respectful treatment and he uses his own playing, in ways to compliment the playing of the other musicians, which will lead you to believe, that the set you're listening to would not be served better anywhere else. They all sound like they have played together their whole lives and for all I know they have. One thing I can tell you is, if they have, it shows and when you get a small bunch of Irish Musicians together as talented as these lads, there is no better music!
