Sleeve Notes

When I was making this album of Irish Love Songs I had one thing in mind - to make it very special, so that in twenty years or more from now it will still have an importance that will hold on to its magic like it was yesterday. What's old? What's new? How old is love? You tekk me. Just as old and as new as these special moments in time.

Magic moments last forever. So many beautiful songs that are ageless and timeless. Always from the heart now and forever.

This Album is dedicated to my late brother Paul Furey for his wonderful talent and for always being there.
