Reviews"Van Morrison chips in a Grammy-winning 'Have I Told You Lately' and Ry Cooder picks sublimely on 'Coast Of Malabar'...", 4 out of 5 - "...The Chieftains are a treasure and every home should have at least one of their albums...", 4 Stars - Excellent - "...THE LONG BLACK VEIL is an album of traditional music performed with the help of some of the biggest names in the business....the overall success of the album rests in the skilled hands of Chieftain leader Paddy Moloney...", 3 Stars - Good - "...no doubt Uillean pipes squeezemaster Paddy Moloney schmoozed at championship level to nail Mick Jagger, Mark Knopfler, Sting and Tom Jones....Despite the rock stars, it's The Chieftains' album, their inspiration, their signature's on it, they hold it together...", "...an album featuring the likes of Sting, Mick Jagger, and Sinead O'Connor as guests of the reigning kings of traditional Irish music..." - Rating: A-
