Flook - Flatfish [CD]

Tremendously appealing, deeply traditional, purely sensual folk flute. Flook capture the "haunting, uplifting" nature of the flute without losing any of the energy or grace of the tunes, some of which are new, some from the British traditions, some from the European. Flutes, whistles, accordion, bouzouki, mandolin and astonishingly harmonic bodhran. A wonderfully relaxing album, yet full of great energy and power.
