I commented before but I have to say it again: This is one of the finest KZfaq sets ever of Cape Breton fiddling.

Andrea plays astonishingly wonderful music. Over the last few years she has been playing beautifully and brilliantly at a level few musicians ever reach. How lucky are those who hear her concerts. Andrea Beaton is red hot, she rocks her reels effortlessly. She's also a beyond marvelous piano player and mighty fine banjo picker. What a talent and what a music hero. Someone please give her a one way ticket to Californ I A.

That's Patrick Gillis and he's not showboating: he's got deep heart and soul. The recording doesn't do him justice, but he plays right in the pocket. And Cape Breton musicians don't treat other musicians as "just sidemen." They are very generous and refreshingly non-egotistical. They are keepers of a living tradition.
