This album, there second, was the much awaited next album. This album has a number of slow airs. Seán Pott's tin whistle style is clear on them, such as Dónall Óg. The Foxhunt is a good example of Paddy Moloney's style of arranging several peices together to tell a story. The hunt & chase. This track is also on The Ballad Of The Irish Horse. This is album is also the first with Peadar Mercier on bodhran and a young fiddler named Seán Keane.
