Release Notes:
Cherish the Ladies' tenth studio album is reliable
without being redundant, soft without seeming
slight, and as rollicking as it is sentimental.
Joined by a small army of guests that read like
Celtic and singer/songwriter royalty (Sharon
Shannon/Triona Ni Dhomhnaill/Phil Cunningham/Kate
Rusby/Eddi Reader), the Ladies have crafted a
beautiful set that harks back to their 1992 debut.
The impossibly lovely voice of Heidi Talbot ù it's
like standing between Alison Krauss and Kirsty
MacColl singing at the same time ù carries each
ballad, both traditional ("Green Fields of Canada,"
"Bogie's Bonnie Belle") and contemporary ("Sweet
Thames Flow Softly"), with such effortlessness that
it's a wonder she even has to move her mouth, while
the band makes high-octane instrumentals like
"Jigs: Carolan's Favorite Jig/The Rakes of
Cashel/Highland March in Oscar & Malvina" and the
ferocious title track sound like the very forces of
nature in human form.
