Glenn Graham - Drive (Browbeat)
From sfcelticmusic.com

This CD could not be more aptly named. Take a listen to a few tracks of this CD and you will know why Glenn is one of the most requested fiddlers for dances in Cape Breton. I remember Natalie MacMaster and her family after a concert charging off to a dance in West Mabou because Glenn (and cousin Rodney MacDonald) were playing. Glen notes the definition of "drive" includes "to push or propel onward with force...the provide the motive power for.. to move along rapidly...a strong motivating power or stimulus..." It could also include his playing on this album.

This is "meat and potatoes" Cape Breton playing - Glenn on fiddle,
the great Joel Chaisson on piano and Patrick Gillis on guitar, and its off
to the dances we go! (Very highly recommended)
