By film fan VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD
This is the third album of Natalie MacMaster's that I purchased when I was last over in Canada in August 2001. She is so popular over there and in the States that you can only get to see her live over there and not over here which is a great shame cause I think she would do well over here. In fact I think there would be packed houses wherever she played she is that good. On listening to this album I'm really surprised she isn't recognised anywhere else apart from in Canada and the States. Another album that oozes quality and class. The last track on the album is very fitting because not only is it a live recording but it also features her uncle on fiddle with her. The tracks are great to listen too and I would say my favourite is the sublime 'The Cuckoo'. It's a slow haunting piece aided by keyboards and synthesizer. An album that quite simply ROCKS!!!

Indulge Yourself 27 Nov 2000
By Jason - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
I have been on a whirlwind tour of natalie macmaster throughout the last month, and i encourage everyone to follow suit. i saw her in concert earlier this month (it was the most amazing thing), and i bought this CD 2 days ago, and i simply cannot get enough of her incredible talent. i have literally listened to nothing else since i bought this recording, and here is why. don't be fooled by the name or cover of this album. i was hesitant at first because i was expecting a CD full of romantic-like ballads (which, with her talents, would have been fine), but what i really wanted was an energy-packed recording, and that's just what i found. her roots ARE showing, but in a very energetic manner. this probably goes for all cape breton fiddling (or at least in the sets that i have come in contact with), but the sets always end with a fast tune, and this is the energy that keeps me coming back for more. macmaster does not mess around on this album. she provides the listener with nearly 60 minutes of insane, yet completely controlled playing that gets better the more you listen. playing sets that last as long as 7 minutes (this is a long time and hard to keep up at the pace she is going-- she should be admired for this), she provides a feel that is almost similar to the feeling that i got when i saw her live. the final track on this album actually is a live recording of her and her uncle (the famous CB fiddler buddy macmaster), but except for the clapping in the background, it sounds no different than the rest of the tracks on the album. naturally, the last track is the standout track because it packs the most power, but the other tracks are amazingly close in the amount of energy expressed. i simply cannot say enough good things about macmaster and this album, and i encourage everyone to see her live, or at the very least, buy any recording that you can get your hands on. you will not be disappointed.

Natalie showing where it all started.... 10 May 2000
By goodoldmac - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
This CD by this amazingly talented Cape Breton fiddler is a return to her roots as the title suggests. Using only the "basic" musicans, much like she tours with, MacMaster plays traditional tunes of the island she grew up on. Mostly fast "jig" or "reel" tunes, there is also slow paced music here as well as well as the wonderful final tune, apparently recorded live with Natalie's uncle Buddy MacMaster as a guest fiddle. Listen closely and you will hear Natalie's exuberent "whoops" as the music takes her away...Isuppose anyone can learn to play the fiddle, (except for "fumble-thumbs" like me :-) ) but few have MacMaster's amazing God-given talent and you can only be thankful she is able to share it with us...

MacMaster at Her Best 8 May 2000
By "harvard-fiddler" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
For any folk dancer such as myself the surest way to rate music of the type found on this recording is the strengh of the response ones feet make in listening to it. In the case of this, the latest release from Ms. MacMaster, the feet index went off the scale. Buy it and see for yourself.
