Fun music superbly presented,
By Peter Durward Harris "Pete the music fan" (Leicester England) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Best Of The (Audio CD)
I often think that fun music must be the hardest to do properly because it would be so easy to sound silly. Yet here is a group that sounds like they're having fun but still taking their music seriously.The set opens with The unicorn, a children's song that has become their signature song. Liverpool Lou is a great folk song that has been recorded by many singers. The orange and the green takes an amusing look at an Irish family (their own?) in which the father is Protestant and the mother is Catholic. Lily the Pink, a brilliant drinking song, is a cover of the Scaffold's number one UK hit. Did she mention my name is a cover of a Gordon Lightfoot song. Years may come years may go provided Herman's Hermits with a major UK hit in 1970. The marvellous toy is a cover of Tom Paxton's classic children's song. A storefront from the TV series, The Virginian, was the inspiration for Mrs Crandall's boarding house. So many great songs (and not just those I've mentioned) will surely provide plenty of happy listening. If the Irish rovers can't cheer you up, nobody can.

I was pleasantly surprised when I played this album. Most of them I hadn't heard in years. The quality is very good for the time period they were recorded. My particular favourites are 'Liverpool Lou' and 'The Black Velvet Band' although every selection brings back memories of a less complicated time. They were certainly a listenable group and must have had a lot of fun doing these songs. It's the first time I heard their version of 'Did She Mention My Name' by Gordon Lightfoot, and it sounds good.
