It's a Hard Road to Travel

by Paul Brady, Andy McGann

Overview

This album makes it obvious why McGann was revered as the top fiddler of the Bronx. A robust, almost classical tone combines with an easy grace and fluttering ornaments for a distinctive and masterful sound. Paul Brady's guitar accompaniments bring out the best. ~ Steve Winick
