Review

Celtic Dance is a two-disc sampler concentrating on the more traditional side of Celtic music, and -- as the title makes obvious -- on its more uptempo, danceable styles. Many of the artists here have multiple selections included, such as Davy Spillane, Solas, Altan, and Eileen Ivers; there are also contributions from Seamus Egan, the Bothy Band, De Dannan, Arcady, Richard Souther, and others. ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide
