Music reviews of On The Fly
Music Review: Excellent Traditional Irish Music
Rating: 5 Stars
Fáilte! Within the genre of traditional Irish music, I can easily rate this album at five stars. I am very happy to see Patrick Street back with a new album. They have been playing exceptionally good music for a very long time. I have already worn out a few of their classic albums and in process of wearing out their replacements. I am very impressed with the addition of John Carty, especially his fiddle, flute and vocals. He also has a relaxed style on the tenor banjo that reminds me of Kiernan of Stockton's Wing. He has a solo fiddle introduction to "Seanamhac Tube Station" that is gorgeous work. Andy Irvine (bazouki, mandolin, harmonica, vocals) and Kevin Burke (fiddle) sound like they are still in their prime. Ged Foley ( guitar, vocals) contributes his beautiful chord progressions and deep voice to the mix.
Farewell Jackie! I am very sad to hear of the departure of Jackie Daly. His contributions on the button accordian have been excellent, including hall of fame level performances with the old Patrict Street, such as "Music for a New Found Harmonium", "Jack The Bridge/Cul Aodh Polka/The Salmon Tailing Up The River", and "McDermott's Reel/The Plough And The Stars/Miss McLeod's Reel." He was also there at the beginning of the Irish music renaissance in the 1970's and contributed to De Danann with very lively jigs, reels, hornpipes and polkas. He will be missed.
I hate to make small suggestions in regaurd to an excellent album. The new group is finding its own chemistry and I may just need some additional playing/drinking time with the album to get adjusted. However, they start gently with a John's flute lead in "Na Ceannabhain Bhana/ Paidin O Raieartaigh." It is an excellent gentle to medium paced track. By the end of the album I was longing for a few more lively fast tracks thrown in that would be a throw back to their "Live" album. My favorite track on this album is "Martin Wynne's/ Jackie Coleman's/ Malynn's Fancy" and is an example of the livelier tracks that would make the set of tracks more dynamic in range of pace.
My compliments for a great album and the addition of John to the group. I think the addition of flute, fiddle, twin fiddles with Kevin, and banjo make John and his multi talents great. This is an excellent addition to any traditional Irish music collection. Slán agaibh!
