Decca Reviewed 2003-06-11 | ||
Oh, Canada! Celtic fiddles, Quebecois chanson, Inuit throat-singing, and more. Some of the artists you may know (Bruce Cockburn/Natalie MacMaster), some you may not know…but it’s all good. Especially these: 1. Contemporary first-nation folk/rock song of praise. Lowkey. 2. Mid-tempo French folk/rock w/strong percussion. 3. Guitar/vocals/perc. Pleasant, kinda jazzy. 4. Cool fiddling, uptempo set of reels w/a contemporary flair. 5. Fun vocal harmonies, uptempo French folk. 6. Fem vox in Gaelic, bouncy but w/a touch of drama. 7. Cool reels for fiddle, foot stomping, Jew’s harp. Great sound 9. Slow a capella intro into wild bluegrassy romp. 12. French/Irish folk music played on trad. Chinese instr. Cool. 13. Fem Native Canadian chanting w/shakers. Nice energy. 14. Funny county ode to trees and rocks. Mid-tempo. 18. Elegant & stately ode to Canada. A capella. 20. Male vox/guitar, mid-tempo folk song about blackflies. 21. Inuit throat-singing. Short, odd, very odd, but cool. 6/2003 |
