Just received a copy of this CD from Colm. I've listened through it now 3 times in a row, really an excellent record and I'd say one you'd want to own if you're serious into the drum. Excellent playing, but really nice arrangements and a wide spectrum of variety in which Colm places the drum as far as accompaniment goes- and on top of that recorded very well. Easy to hear articulations on your random computer or auto speakers even. Some really nice tune sets (a gorgeous one with Stephen Doherty on flute with a version of Colonel Frazier's that is some tasty flute playing in its own right), and also a nice piece (currently my favourite) with Sarah Jane Murphy that is just the drum and voice. There are some other really nice bits that are a bit more innovative there as well, including a sort of lounge-y jazzy bit with Colm backing piano, then one that is drum, banjo and piano where the beat goes where it may- nice stuff! Couldn't recommend this record enough, really nice effort from Colm and friends.

PS, I'd think you can get the record from Colm himself, not sure about iTunes or other outlets right yet.

It still spins around in my Cd player :) Love the duos idea, it's really helping me making progress in my playing.

Thanks guys for your kind words. Much appreciated! The album will be available in the next few days through itunes and most digital download sites. Physical copies can be found on www.bodhranphelan.com

Cheers,

I got my copy last week. I've played it in the car, non-stop every day since and I'm still not tiring of it. The rythms are all very different and the musicianship by every one (duos already mentioned)is excellent. It does let you concentrate on the tune and the rythm without anything being lost in the sound of a band or group. Very brave to do an album of duos but it turned out A1 and I look forward to another similar album.
