If you want a good party, go visit Halifax. My wife lived in Halifax before she moved out west to be with me. Lots of great pubs, lots of great music. I loved going out east to visit her. Too bad the weather sucks.




One of life's rules: The worse the weather; the better the pubs.
This is truly the case for all of Maritime Canada and Newfoundland. Aye Boy.

I was really digging it until the fiddle came in...and stayed.

As a fiddle player myself, this just boggles the mind. As a fiddle player from Newfoundland, the characteristic Scottish rhythm of these tunes' Cape Breton style makes it even more difficult. Still getting my head around that bit :)

"Fiddle and farm " See it's not so hard to say! ;-)

Ah. Great Eastern Canadian folk music. We (Canadians) as a musical bunch really know how to knee up!

Eastern Canada - that would explain the distinctly Celtic feel to the fiddle, as the Scots and Irish diaspora in that area is legion. Brilliant stuff :) - 8 from the Celtophile Nottingham jury

The musicianship of this along with the arrangement is absolutely wonderful! Yep it is! {#Bananapiano}

The piano intro intrigued me greatly. It's the way I like to play.

Sounds a little like Ashley MacIsaac.

MacIsaac is a little more frantic in his fiddling. This down right pedestrian compared to him. Still pretty good though.

I think we all like a bit of a fiddle now and then

I have to laugh when I heard Bill comment on this song. He pointed out that it is a group comprising of eight siblings from the town of Lakefield Ontario.

What is it about (Irish) fiddle tunes that makes it so the musicians can't keep the same tempo from one end of a song to the other? {#Think}

I have this album and mostly like it but it is a bit too manic and about "see how fast I can play".

Um...no, it doesn't sound remotely like that song.
