Album Description FROM THE CREATORS AND PRODUCERS OF THE IRISH PHENOMENON CELTIC WOMAN COMES THE NEXT GENERATION IN IRISH BALLAD MUSIC, THE HIGH KINGS. Finbarr Clancy, Martin Furey, Brian Dunphy and Darren Holden - renowned vocalists and musicians - have come together to form the hottest Irish folk and ballad group to emerge since The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem electrified the worldwide folk revival of the 1960s. The musical producer is the highly acclaimed David Downes, who is the musical genius behind Celtic Woman and formerly the musical director of Riverdance. He brings intricate harmonies and driving rhythms to The High Kings songbook, giving them a freshness and sparkle that is infectious. A rousing TV special was filmed in Dublin and is available on DVD (The High Kings: Live in Dublin).

Revival of pure Irish ballads. June 17, 2008 These Irish men have grown up with outstanding ballads and now under the direction of the multi-talented David Downes have put together a seamless presentation that will make you tap and clap along with their audience. Do yourself a favor - get the DVD of this show also and watch the pure Irish traditions unfold before your eyes.
Awesome! June 13, 2008 The high kings really sound great and this CD is a must (if your into this kind of music). I realize that not everyone is into Irish / Celtic kind of music, but if you are I think that you will love this group. I saw them live in concert were they only performed about 4 songs. I knew then that I wanted their CD and I'm happy that I got it.
The best Irish band all time. June 11, 2008 I love these songs. The rocky road is awesome. What I am telling you is, you should definitly buy it.
This CD is fantastic! June 5, 2008 My love for celtic music has been nurtured by time spent in the Canadian Maritimes on vacations but I have purchased several CDs over the past few years only to be disappointed. Not so with this CD though. I have thoroughly enjoyed it & highly recommend it to my friends.
Yes, they're good, but... May 18, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
but there are so many others with similar/better talents. I really enjoyed their voices - a real delight, but would I have been happier spending the same amount for a CD of Celtic Woman? hard to say. they're good, really, and I enjoy the music, but of my collection of celtic music, this won't be played as often as others. Okay, I'm damning with faint praise. The CD is good... I do enjoy it, but it may be a year or more before I play it again. Yet, I plan to keep it. :)
