Celtic music is one of the most beautiful, with its great sweetness, fighting spirit and fantasy... Celtic Cafe is a wonderful selection where we find not only the inevitable songs (Trains And Winter Rains, Whiskey In The Jar, Only Time, Caribbean Blue, The Druid), but their great performers (Mike Oldfield, Joan McIness, Kevin Burke, Claire Hamilton, Shirley Castle, Carla Friedman...)
