A beautiful song receives gracious arrangements.,
By tallahasseelass "Janet" (Tallahassee, FL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Fabulous Danny Boy Album (Audio CD)
This CD is enchanting from the very start. The variety of renditions keeps the listener tuned in. While it would be hard to imagine anyone purchasing this CD that didn't like the title song, the music is wonderful, especially when shuffled with other similar music on a multiplay CD player.

I urge all unheroes of Archies,rightists, leftists and deGrEEd licensured dogooders to listen to these spirited cleansing sounds in quiet solitude, as did I; briefly--.It is, I believe, for all for have suffered the Terror,Fear, Anger,shame--and (in) dignity of surviving a war or two--Whether domestic, foreign, Corporal-(including religious,Judicial,legal, or NFP "Living Entity") or as a mere de facto human being.This one is a definite threat to the licensured do g-ooders--of long term chit bounty medical pillings!In Short--I felt my inner stoned walls melt with oh so cleansing pearls of solitude(ed) remembrances--briefly--passionately--and timelessly.Its a gemmed must for any who think they are stone cold dead and who dont think they have the best of the spirits of lost ones preserved within them as their shining lights-!A few times with this one and Viagra sales will suffer your mates amazements--from sea to shining -saltined sea !shew--Still welling on this one! But oh so cleansing--and "self" inflectively reflective and healing(softening)-- lil mac g!

The clarinet and flute solos are a part of my dreams now.,

This review is from: The Fabulous Danny Boy Album (Audio CD)
The concept of a single CD or multi-track recording focusing on a single melody has always seemed out of reach -- at least in a manner that would hold me in rapture from beginning to end. This CD did the job! In spades! Who could imagine the likes of Al Hirt, James Galway, Peter Nero, Richard Stoltzman (amazing! How does he do it?), Mario Lanza, Roger Whittaker and on and on . . . all in a dreamlike collection of wonderful renditions of a familiar melody that transported me back to my childhood (and that's over several decades to before World War II)? It's a good thing that CDs don't wear out! I put the Stoltzman (clarinet) solo on "repeat" while sleeping the other night and wow! My dreams were like none I can ever remember. Anyone who enjoys the "Danny Boy" melody should absolutely hear this marvelously well-balanced collection of . . . well, what else? . . . "Danny Boy" !!!

As said, enjoyable from start to finish, room for more?,
By Tom Plum "TC" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Fabulous Danny Boy Album (Audio CD)
A well done collection; Elvis Pressley has a stirring rendition and perhaps there are copyright reasons as to why this is not on this album; and the Glenn Miller bigband version would have fit in well too. The Roger Whittaker track is moving and has a nice contemporary sound; but I still find fault with his ommission of some of the lyrics, poetic license should only go so far. Still, you will not be disappointed; I was in fact, captivated for the first few hours of listening to this CD, glad I got it on a Saturday. I am already, to the dismay of my old college roommates, one of those sorts who might listen to the same song 5 times in a row off an album. This is certainly solved here. My favorite versions must be the Mario Lanza and Kate Smith tracks; however, my choices may well change because each version certainly has it's merits. Oh, and lastly, some of you may need a box of kleenex to go along with this set.
