Chris Murphy,”The Tinker’s Dream” Original Irish fiddle music- That pretty much sums it up. Sometimes I get annoyed when there is too much promo info on an album, but I’d like to know more about these songs… Like “Gibraltar 1988”. It’s obviously a story; you hear it in the tune. This is a mix of traditional sounding Irish instrumental music and upbeat fun songs. Thank you Chris Murphy and friends for forcing me to learn what a reel is. (Look it up - you’ve probably seen a form of it) Best for me: 2, 5, 7, 8, 12 1. Med - Playful, reel 2*. Slow - Slow and mournful beginning, then interesting tune builds intensity 3. Med - Instrumental jig 4. Med - Song with Irish instruments 5*. Slow - Obviously a story, nice, intriguing 6. Med/Fast - Jig/dancing song 7*. Slow/Med - Fun sounding hornpipe instrumental 8*. Med - Pop song. I didn’t like it at first, but it’s actually pretty 9. Med - Traditional sounding Irish jig 10. Med - Traditional sounding Irish jig 11. Med - Traditional sounding Irish jig 12*. Slow/Med - Waltz- Fiddle sings true | ||
