Aaron Jones and Claire Mann - Secret Orders [CD]

If the orders were to provide a great listening CD of Celt-ish, folk-ish, swingy music of high calibre, they have been well obeyed. Old songs and newer ones, traditional tunes and recent ones, vocals, tune sets and a host of folk instruments lead by Aaron on bouzouki and guitars, with Claire on fiddle, flute and whistles. Style and energy, soft sophistication. Excellent.
