Disappointment and pleasant surprise in one

Review Score: (8/10)
For tracks like Na laethe Bhi, Banba Oir, Theme from the Last of Mohicans and A Gentle Place I'd give not 5, but 10 stars. But for the pop-remainings I'd hardly give 2. This is an interesting struggle of Clannad's members in making a commercial album while tradition, roots, imagination and mysterious images are trying to set themselves free from mainstream-listeners' needs. Mike Oldfield called such people "cloth-eared nincompoops". Yet somehow they manage to turn really interesting and respectable performers into worse than average.
