Music Review: The Greatest Album Ever Recorded-"Live" Natalie Macmaster
Rating: 5 Stars

Here it is,folks the best album end to end that was ever released. I like to think that I'm qualified to judge music from over 50 years of intensely listening up to libraries worth of recorded music from opera, classical, country,and rock, and swing. I really pay attention when listening and know what I am hearing in "Live". Natalie has recorded a Double Masterpiece that shows the world what music is all about. Over the years I heard the best of the best musicians from all over the world play music so beautiful as to make the angels weep. The first time hearing Natalie in concert was to me like being thunderstruck by a lightning bolt out of the blue. Her music was like a waterfall of rainbows pouring out of the sky and into my soul. She plays so fast that your mind is dazzled by Beauty quicker than you can think. Then she plays faster, then she plays faster than that then she plays fast as can be. What a player, she leaves the fastest rock musicians in the dust.
If you ever have a chance to her play, run for the tickets. You will see a glorious waif of a girl who looks so little and plays so big. When she opens up close your eyes and have a good listen. When Natalie takes off it is like a rocket ship right to the center of the sun. Your whole being will be flooded by pure light. She is like The Statue Of Liberty holding up a torch of gold and white light in the form of her music that she loves so much. Oh, She is fiercely proud of her heritage. She plays Cape Breton Fiddle Music, the happiest, most delightful, wonderful and fun music in the universe.
Natalie plays with fire in her eyes and lightning in her hands. And she packs more Beauty in a second of music in "Live" than on any CD I ever heard. And I like music blazing fast, that helps me think quick and I like to think fast as can be. Just put on side 1 of "Live" and you will hear what I mean. By the time you hear tune 3 "TORNA A SURRIENTO" you will know it's all over. Here's the best album ever released, The Greatest Record in History.
What would you like from music? Beauty, Fun, Goodness, Niceness, Joy, Exuberance, Energy, Happiness, Glory, a sense of Wonder and Delight? That's well enough but a tune to make you leap into dance, there it is. The closest I ever came to flying so far was at the end of a Natlie Macmaster concert when she was reeling and the crowd was bouncing up and down like to go right up through the sky. Listen to "Tullochgorum" and "The A Medley". Just close your eyes and listen to the fastest parts. Your mind will be filled with Light and fired with Beauty faster than you can think. Natalie's brilliant playing will fill your heart with Love, fill your mind with Light and fill your soul with Beauty. The music is to me like Gold Light. Natalie shines a Light that leaves images on the music that flood my rapt mind.
To me it's like reading a tale of The Storybook Like Princess who waits for The King With Eyes Like The Soul Of The Universe to appear and meet her on the Music. She has flax hair down in two braids neat as can be. Here she is Cool Cat Chic. She has eyes like diamonds and flames on her feet. She is at the center of a dance floor, to light up the world with her smile. She was born ready to GO. Outside, there he is, The King looking so handsome and ready.
Then I see The King and Princess sitting facing each other looking in each others eyes. Then my mind sees a Beautiful waif who plays mighty big dance in. She has fire in her eyes and lightning in her hands. She plays that fiddle fast as can be , wearing a white dress with green shamrocks and a gold fringe. She plays right to the center of the foreheads of The King and Princess. They blast into pure light. After that he is known as The King With Supernova Bright Eyes and she is The Queen Who Lived Happily Ever After. So if you can get any more out of music than these images good luck to you.

I've had this CD for 17 days. I have stacks of great music just waiting for time. But I can't even conceive to listening to anything else for a long while. Here is the triumph of the human spirit in the form of Natalie Macmaster's "Live" CD. Natalie Macmaster deserves to be acclaimed as one of the greatest musicians to ever walk the earth. She deserves credit for taking this Beautiful music to the people, on the road for 300 shows a year, working tirelessly for over a decade. Natalie MacMaster deserves a Noble Peace Prize for Brightening Up The World. Look how much Beauty ,Love, Light, Peace, Hope, Joy, Goodness, Niceness and Fun she has given the world. So Hooray for Natalie MacMaster. Encore Natalie,Encore!

Release Date: 4-JUN-2002
Cape Breton fiddler Natalie MacMaster's two-CD live set is neatly divided into music for listening and music for dancing. MacMaster recorded the "in concert" first disc at a 2001 show with her six-piece band. The performances include medleys of dance tunes interspersed with a handful of lovely slow airs. The arrangements are both eclectic and contemporary--her version of the Italian tune "Torna a Surriento" segues into a reel and then into "Flamenco Fling," for example--but MacMaster's deep connection to her Cape Breton roots keeps the music from straying too far from the traditional. The second disc, the "Glencoe Dance," was recorded at a Cape Breton square dance in 1997 and features MacMaster backed only by piano and acoustic guitar. The tunes and arrangements are unabashedly traditional, and MacMaster creates an intoxicating rhythmic pulse that has the entire hall dancing, clapping, and whooping along with her intricate melodic fancies. Live is a rare glimpse of an expert fiddler who is creating vibrant, modern music while still keeping in touch with the traditional sounds that nurtured her. --Michael Simmons
