supported by 11 fans who also own “Caher Rua / Dan Breen`s / Now She`s Purring”
Absolutely sensational - love the generally low-end tones and planxty-esque set up, but most of all the incredible energy of it! Wish more instrumental trad was like this, love the fact that it's recorded live too.

McMullan's playing is remedy for the hyped up, tickity-tackity playing you hear a lot these days. I hope to God I will never hear "Clumsy Lover" again, but if I do I pray it is Chris playing it.
