From the opening notes of Bucimis to the final notes of Oi Tate, this is a superbly recorded and intensely musical album which gets played a lot in our house. Singer Chris Schwabe has one of those too-rare voices which actually can take you to the centre of the song with a very full and tuneful voice. The whistles and flute sound as good as any from the Emerald Isle and the violins have not only fluid articulation and spotless intonation but also full tone without sounding too classical. Skryp’s guitarwork is delightful and the imaginative arrangements and tasteful percussion have all the authority of Planxty or The Bothy Band without sounding too Irish. Indeed, thanks to the aforementioned Bucimis and Le Vin d’Amour, a song in French, there is a definite European flavour to the album which makes a refreshing change and the whole thing is as new-sounding and as refreshing as the likes of Fernhill. Highly recommended. Maartin Allcock May 2004 Featuring fiddle, whistle, guitar and bodhran, Rum Kelter is a four piece folk band from Norfolk. The music has its roots in Ireland, but frequently travels beyond, to Scotland, France, Scandinavia and Eastern Europe.
