Review by Phae Deepsky

Erin Go Bragh Songs Of The Emerald Isle is a beautiful album by Morton Downey that celebrates the rich musical heritage of Ireland. The album features a collection of traditional Irish songs that are performed with great passion and skill by Downey. His powerful voice, accompanied by the beautiful melodies of the Irish instruments, creates a truly mesmerizing experience for the listener.

The album includes popular Irish tunes such as "Danny Boy" and "The Wild Rover," as well as lesser-known gems like "The Lark in the Morning" and "The Foggy Dew." Each track is beautifully arranged and showcases Downey's exceptional vocal range and emotional depth.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Fields of Athenry," a haunting ballad that tells the story of a man who is unjustly imprisoned for stealing food during the Great Famine. Downey's rendition of this powerful song is deeply moving and captures the pain and suffering of the Irish people during this tragic period in their history.
