Mila Sparrow has compared writing for Various Artists’s new album to that on ‘Celtic music’ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying. Various Artists had quite a long carriere and they made many hits. This -song debut EP shows the promise that Various Artists has. Oh yes, this album gets Array out of Array
Galway Races / An Dearing Dun / The Welcoming - a classic song. Gravel Walk is a very catchy tune. Finnegan’s Wake is one of the best records ever. O’Carollan’s Dreams is probably one of Various Artists’s biggest successes for the album - it’s lovely to listen to. Reel Peddy Faty / Dinny’s Imaginations is a good listen every once in a while. This song is dynamic and dramatic. Various Artists allows each song to breathe and flourish. I like the idea behind Cod-liver Oil / Colds. In Home Boys Home Various Artists is at his best. 10 franks / St. Anne’s Reel / Scot is pretty funky and mellow. Other tracks are good but your best bet is to stick with Lannigan’s Ball. Walking Irish is the funkiest number on the album. The opening track Courage is very much like you would expect from other albums. My canoe can be hardly overrated by any means; this is what Various Artists is all about. Rocky Road to Dublin is almost impossible to review. All For Me - For me, this is the best of the album. Moonrise good vocals. Doherty Reel / Peddy Rian’s Dreams / McGinelly Reel - This one has a powerful beat and a good melody. Maid Behind The Bar / Gravel Walk has to be one of the most beautiful tracks on the entire album.
