Nova Scotia Gaelic CDs

A' Seo CD
Local Nova Scotian Gaelic activist and singer Lewis (Lodaidh) MacKinnon has released his first all-Gaelic CD called simply A' Seo. There is a good mix of the contemporary and traditional song on the CD, including a couple of original compositions from Lewis himself, and an very pleasant song he translated from the Irish ("Dòmhnall Og 'us Mórag"). The sound is wonderfully mixed with backup vocals provided by another local Gaelic Singer, Patricia Murray, which contracts nicely with Lewis' own strong voice; Lewis is also assisted by well-known musicans Brian England, Troy MacGillivray and others. My favourite is the first track, Ailein Duinn. Lewis takes some artistic license with a couple traditional pieces which some traditionalists may object too, but fit well with the over-all pseudo-contemporary feel of the album. Lyrics to the 11 tracks and background notes are provided. Highly recommended.
