This is a fine CD that came out a while ago featuring the band of the Irish Guards playing a selection of Irish and popular band selections. The first half has a lovely collection of famous Irish tunes arranged for band. Here you will find many of those cherished Irish tunes played as only a British Guards band can do. The second part features some popular music for the military band which includes some good marches. In particular "Guards Armored Division" is an old classic written to celebrate the part of the British Guards when they became mechanized during WW2. The CD concludes with a Gershwin medley and the regimental marches. Since this is an older release it looks like it is being pressented as MP3 format. This is too bad as you may not get any of the liner notes that describes the music. Still, it better than nothing. With the current 2010 debut USA tour of the band with the Argylls this should prove a popular item.
