A feast of Celtic music in London's Finsbury Park


Field day at the Fleadh


Review By Nigel Williamson


Transcribed by Peter Shevlin


Similarly, the Corrs took only 40 minutes on the main stage to demonstrate why they are a good bet for stardom. A debut album, though well received, has a misleadingly smooth surface. In fact, the three sisters and one brother combine traditional instrumentation with a pop sensibility to good effect, and have stage presence, too. The cumulative effect is that of the Chieftains meeting Wilson Phillips, with a spot of Riverdance-style dancing thrown in for good measure. How can they not be huge?
