Lead single “An Gabhar Ban” and “Mrs. Mcdermott” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. This is one of the best Cd’s Clannad has dropped to date. Clannad’s debut, ‘Ring Of Gold’, does not fit easily into one genre. This album is a scorcher!
Clannad has astounded me with this amazing track. All of songs on Ring Of Gold and have something to say letting alone Rince Philib A’cheoil. Down By The Sally Gardens is the best music that I have heard from anyone in any area of music. Teidhir Abhaile Riu is nothing short of a modern masterpiece. After you’ve listened to Eleanor Plunkett, most everything else can’t hold up and is second rate. D Tigeas A’damhsa is one of these floating songs. Ring Of Gold couldn’t start better than with the up up-beat title track Eirigh Is Cuir Ort. Do Chuid Eadaigh - A catchy, upbeat tune. Nil Se’n La is a great song to contemplate the modern music and what it really is all about.
