Brigid's Cross, music "Crazy Train Reel"

Brigid's Cross is a high energy band that plays traditional, contemporary and original compositions. Paul Baker is a wizard on the fiddle and mandolin and also provides lead and back up vocals. Peggy Goonan-Baker has a one of a kind voice and excells on the Bodhran and keyboards. This trio is completed by guitarist Richie Reece who also has been a world class Irish step dancer. Brigid's Cross has toured all over the USA and Ireland.

Their website is a bit difficult to get around, but when I saw the "Crazy Train Reel" I just didn't care. Yes, Ozzy Osborne is reborn Celtic style in this high speed live performance by the band that goes from a metal song to big band swing with "In the Mood." Awesome performance by this band. Sadly, the tune is not available on CD, but they do have a few other albums available. Check out the clips on CDBaby and you'll hear something that you will want to add to your album collection.
