There's a soundtrack album which I see Amazon has a 30% reduction on at the moment (down at $12.58). I was only scouting to see the track listing but got no joy.

They give an average of star ratings arising from reviews for it - four-and-a-half out of five.

"Reviews Amazon.com Traditional Irish instrumentation mixes with classical orchestration on the soundtrack to Waking Ned Devine, and the results are impressive, to say the least. On "Red Herrings," a traditional fiddle-and-whistle lineup gets truly funky, and other tracks brim with the playful innocence of a tiny Irish hamlet. The Waterboys' single "Fisherman's Blues" is, of course, included as well. But the score that Irish composer Shaun Davey has created is magnificent--a delightful mix of old and new with some truly great playing. --James Hendrickson

The artist, Kirk Jones. , November 13, 1998 An inspiring and emotive cinematic score - The Director As the writer and director of Waking Ned Devine I am aware that my notes on the soundtrack will be seen to be biased. But I wont let that prevent me from encouraging you to listen to one of the most original and inspiring scores I've ever heard. Shaun Davey has composed a cinematic score which has the complexity and depth of an orchestral score but features the most emotive, primitive sounds of traditional Irish instruments. The result is a score which not only serves my film but deserves to be listened to in it's own right.

rburriss@exepc.com from Milwaukee, WI , December 12, 1998 A true beauty. This is a soundtract that does not betray any expectation. No duds in the lot, each song has a unique personality and is well delivered. Good voices, excellent instrumentation. The last song puts to words a lovely old poem (the author of which I don't know) called The Parting Glass - it alone would be worth buying the CD."

maayan8@hotmail.com from new york city , December 12, 1998 inspiring, and essential to the enjoyment of the characters. I saw this movie the other night, leaving the theatre exhilerated . I wanted to call my grandparents and tell them how much I miss them and how much I love them. The music brought me back to memories of dancing after dinner, birthdays, and my mother's humming while she cooked in the kitchen. If you only buy the album to remember the movie, that is just fine. I did."

The site promises to give a track listing but seems to stop at 1, which is a bit inconvenient. Never mind, I'll keep looking.

Shoh slaynt,
