Come Back To The Hills by Various is an album that showcases the beauty of traditional folk music. The album features a diverse range of artists who have all contributed to creating a cohesive and enjoyable listening experience. Each track on the album is unique in its own way, yet they all share a common thread of authenticity and passion for the genre.
The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful track, "The Water is Wide," which sets the tone for what is to come. The artists on the album have done an excellent job of staying true to the traditional roots of folk music while also adding their own unique twists and interpretations.
One standout track on the album is "Black is the Color," which features a stunning vocal performance from one of the artists. The stripped-down arrangement allows the vocals to shine and truly capture the emotion of the lyrics.
"For the imaginative listener nothing recreates the atmosphere of a country quite as well as its own popular music, so that when we are away from Ireland such songs as we find in this collection come flooding back to remind us of the gaiety, sadness and romance we have found there." Back cover liner notes.
Come Back To The Hills is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates traditional folk music. The album is a testament to the enduring power of this genre and the talented artists who continue to keep it alive.
