Amazon.com The gloriously unpredictable Irish accordion virtuoso, fiddler and bandleader returns with another remarkably varied set. She is accompanied by a consort of tried-and-true homies, such as her talented sister Mary, plus prominent guest stars. The tunes range from rhythmically robust yet minutely-crafted trad-arr extravaganzas to a neo-tango (with vocals by Kirsty McColl, no less) that made its way onto the album via Grace Jones and the late Argentinean composer/bandoneon master Astor Piazzolla. There is also a tongue-in-cheek tribute to Hogs And Heifers, a notorious NYC bar catering to bikers, frat boys and exhibitionists. However, Sinéad O'Connor's simple, ardent treatment of the The Seven Rejoices Of Mary raises the tone, as does All The Ways You Wander, featuring the girlish, bell-like soprano of Pauline Scanlon. An Phailistin describes the tragedy of the Palestinian people. Sung in Egyptian and Irish by Róisín Elsafty and her immigrant family, it is a genuine heartbreaker. --Christina Roden Product Description Virtuoso accordionist, fiddler and bandleader Sharon Shannon has walked a brave and personal path through traditional Irish music, inventively fusing with reggae rhythms, rock backbeats, and the aching twang of American country and bluegrass. She continues to defy and redefine musical boundaries with her latest album, the stunningly diverse LIBERTANGO. a year's worth of touring recording with Sinead O'Connor has lead Shannon to rediscover the role of female vocalists in her own music, leading to several stirring encounters here. O'Connor guest on two traditional songs, while the much-missed Kirsty McColl delivers the title track, a tango by the great Argentine composer Astor Piazolla.
