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)
