That Deceiving Title is a Matter of Opinion........2005-10-12

Beware of marketing ploys like the title of this collection by various performers, because the only thing they share in these 18 tracks is their inherited ethnicity. This isn't so much an eclectic blend of various Irish musical culture as it is a collection of pop, blue-eyed soul, and country musicians who are most likely only well-known within their borders.

I will give the label kudos for such gems as the two Wolfe Tones songs, "My Heart is in Ireland" and my personal fave on this disc, "Streets of New York," "The Green Fields of France" by The Fureys, Meav's "She Moved Through the Fair," and Clannad's "Dulaman." If you're looking for anything more "Irish" on the other baker's dozen tracks, you will come away disappointed unless you enjoy second rate songs from alternative genres. If this is the case, you will be better off purchasing individual albums by Sinead O'Connor, U2, and The Cranberries.
