What people are saying about the album (and "Soul of a Harper") on CD Baby:

5 out of 5 stars A winner
Reviewer: Fred L.
Old favorites revisited and some wonderful spoofs, plus a great new version of "Monster Mash" and the poignent and potent "Soul of a Harper." This disk has become a favorite with our whole family (aged 7 to 50). Highly recommended!
 
5 out of 5 stars Great CD!
Reviewer: Scott A.
I was amazed when I got these cd's, there were some songs on the cd I didnt think I was going to like, but when I put the cd in and told myself I was going to listen to the entire cd, I fell in love with all of the songs, and I absolutely love the slower songs: None but a Harper, Buttercups Lament, Angels Lament, Soul of a Harper and Santa Lucia. Absolutely great CD, definitely the #1 in my cd collection!!

5 out of 5 stars happy go lucky
Reviewer: Amanda
This C.D. really is a great combination of all the funny, touching, feel-good songs that we have come to know and love. Soul Of a Harper and Santa Lucia are personal favorites and sound simply amazing. Great Work!!!!

5 out of 5 stars Full Kilted Fun
Reviewer: Kristen
If you've ever heard the Bards then you know what they're capable of. If you haven't ... well you don't know what you're missing; ... My all-time favourite Bards' song was "Wild Mountain Thyme" until I heard Marc singing his heart out on "Soul of a Harper".

5 out of 5 stars Awesome, unique sound. Versatile material. Superior group!
Reviewer: Cara Chapel
This CD immediately became the favorite one in my playlist. I go around humming "The Old Dun Cow" and it keeps me cheerful and energetic throughout the day. My friends love "Angel's Lament" and "Jedi Drinking Song." "Exclamations" made me laugh so hard I nearly choked; I hadn't heard some of those sci-fi-coined words in twenty years. And hilarious songs such as these mesh seamlessly with haunting, lovely tunes like "Soul of a Harper" and "Buttercup's Lament."
