Loreena McKennitt - The Wind That Shakes The Barley - CD / Yellow Vinyl LP
The Wind that Shakes the Barley includes familiar "classics" such as "Down by the Sally Gardens," "The Star of the County Down" and "The Parting Glass." They are mixed with lesser-known traditional songs, including "The Death of Queen Jane" and "As I Roved Out." There are two instrumental tracks — including a McKennitt original called "The Emigration Tunes," which refers to Irish-Canadian history during the famine of the 1840s.
