Takes You Away, Sep 5 2001
By Jayn Lando - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Nancy Whiskey (Audio CD)
Listening to this cd takes you away to another time and place - a timeless time at a neighborhood pub in ol' Ireland. You can close your eyes and pretend you are there with these songs and the spirit with which they are sung. Extremely talented musicians having a lot fun combine to make this a great cd to listen to over and over!

All the energy!, May 14 2001
By Clark Craig - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Nancy Whiskey (Audio CD)
Switchback's live shows are very high-energy and fun! This album truly captures the experience and all the energy of being front and center at a Switchback show! The sound of Brian FitzGerald's guitar is full and crisp. The voices are strong. The overall sound of the CD is full and clear. The old favorites (traditional Irish standards) are vibrant and fun!It is fun to listen to this CD. It apparent that they had a lot of fun recording these songs and putting their own spin onto the standards. That fun comes though to the listener.
The title track had me so very close to breaking out the bottle of whiskey and drinking a toast! Brian's guitar playing on "Moonshiner" makes it my personal favorite. Marty McCormack's beautiful tenor voice really shines on "Danny Boy". The Switchback original "Donegal Danny" is a comical story about a spirited little Irish character who some may say is quite a ladies man :*) "Golden Jubilee" is happy and uplifting.
The quality of this CD has ignited my anticipation for "The Fire That Burns", Switchback's forthcoming album featuring the full band and all original music.

Great CD, May 3 2004
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Nancy Whiskey (Audio CD)
I have a lot of Irish CDs and this is by far my favorite. Traditional music performed in a fun way that just makes you want to sing along. I can't wait to see the band live in concert. If they are as fun live as they are on this cd it will be a great show. Buy this cd and the only thing you will be disappointed in is that Switchback has only released one other Irish CD. I want more.
