Ah yes, the ever-controversial Sinead. This time she's had the gall to record an album of traditional Irish songs. Can you imagine?

Actually, it's not a bad record. She does

1. Peggy Gordon
2. Her Mantle So Green
3. Lord Franklin
4. The Singing Bird
5. Oro Se Do Bheatha `Bhaile
6. Molly Malone
7. Paddy's Lament
8. The Moorlough Shore
9. The Parting Glass
10. Baidin Fhelimi
11. My Lagan Love
12. Lord Baker (with Christy Moore)
13. I'll Tell Me Ma

Players include Donal Lunny, Sharon Shannon and Steve Wickham. My biggest quibble is the overuse of echo on her vocals. Her voice doesn't need that much help!

Overall, I'd rather listen to Niamh Parsons.

Cheers,
Michael
