Reviews Customer Reviews for The Best Of Silly Wizard An excellent, talented Celtic Trad group. Rating: This album is my first from Silly Wizard, & well worth every penny.
A gifted group, with a fine vocalist. The instrumental performers aren't to be despised, either.
Their music is strongly Celtic Trad Folk, not new agey.
Recommended songs-"Donald McGillavry / O'Neill's Cavalry March", & "The Queen Of Argyll"
Customer Reviews for The Best Of Silly Wizard Cd Silly Wizard ... Scottish-style Celtic folk music Rating: These guys are amazing. This marvelous compilation captures Silly Wizard at their rambunctious peak. Right away you'll notice vocalist Andy M. Stewart is at his very best, as are they all. The songs on this CD are wonderful. The Fisherman's Song is a haunting song about men being lost at sea and the wives & children they leave behind. Here is a bit of the lyrics.
"By the storm-torn shoreline a woman is standing
The spray strung like jewels in her hair
And the sea tore the rocks near the desolate landing
as though it had known she stood there.
Chorus:
For she had come down to condemn that wild ocean
for the murderous loss of her man,
His boat sailed out on Wednesday morning
And it's feared it's gone down with all hands."
This CD is great. Grab one you'll be glad you did!
