    For the record... the third CD is in recording RIGHT NOW. There will be a few traditional jigs and reels in the mix, but there are a lot more upbeat and original tunes with this one. The banjo will be present in two or three of the songs too.

    Upcoming tunes to look for:

    "I'm In Love With A Priest" (about a pint of Guinness)

    "Whiskey/Bailey's/Guinness" (bluegrass song about drinking carbombs)

    "Tartan Is The Color Of My True Love's Hair" (you'll have to use your imagination with the crux of this one)

    "Pretty Wild Bride" (performed first time at our reception in '05)

    "Modern Pirates" (trading ships and rum for cars and beer)

    "Dear Auld Ireland" (traditional with added jigs)

    "Dirty Old Town" (you know it... you love it)

    plus other concert pieces that we've done since July.

    Thanks again for the support, the appearances at the gigs, and the kind words. Now it's time for an entirely new season of meeting-up for music and beer!
    Sounds great Jimmy, If you need someone to review any new CD's from you guys just send them on my way will ya ;-)

    I promise I will be fair (ok, glowing) in all my reviews

    Hmmm. I'm glad I ran across this thread. I've been aware of Jimmy and Barleyjuice from this board, have been to their website and almost made it to two kilt nights when they were playing. What I had not done is actually listened to any of their music. WOW...

    Off to the iTunes music store.................. :-D

    Good job guys.

    Well, tonight I finally purchased the album "Another Round" from the iTunes music store tonight. Barleyjuice's music is very good. Traditional yet er.....almost edgy (if a 43 year old can use that term). Interesting combination of styles. I think I'll get the other album available on iTunes and look for some public appearances.

    Very very nice.

    I bought "Another Round" a couple of years ago when my roommate heard "Nancy Drinks Tequila" on his internet radio. Good stuff! I like the originals, and I like their (your?) take on the classics.
