"Health to the Compay" by 3 Pints Gone
by Catherine L. Tully
Artist: 3 Pints Gone Album: Heath to the Company Year produced: 2004
Most songs on this CD can be described with one simple word; fun! 3 Pints Gone performs often at Celtic fairs and Renaissance festivals, and you can totally picture their music flowing easily in that type of environment. I am partial to Kathleen Masino's rich voice on Wild Mountain Thyme, it really is a nice rendition.
Much of the rest of the music is just plain ol' good listening stuff. If you are feeling like some easy, peppy tunes, much of this album is geared that way. Fun, silly stories, typical Celtic fare, is aplenty here. Health to the Company, the CDs title track is a good tune, and The Minstrel Boy has some nice harmonies throughout.
There is just enough softness to this CD, including the final Irish Blessing, to keep it from being too much folly, and you won't find any experimental music here. For those who are just looking for a good story or two and a nice listen, Health to The Company is a good pick.
