An album of cordial delight, the Truckley Howl displays the lovely nuances of traditional Irish music. Boston's current pearl, Nathan Gourley on fiddle, creates a welltempered balance with the distinctive concertina playing of Mairead Hurley from Sligo. Seasoned accompanist John Blake from London offers insightful narration of each tune on piano and guitar in addition to his thoughtful flute playing. Combining some wellknown classics with rare gems, this album is sure to be a reference for players and listeners alike. -Brian Holleran ‘First you must learn the talk. And then you must learn the grip.
