Energy Orchard - Shinola

ShinolaEssential/Castle ESSCD 204 1993

Unfortunately, Energy Orchard has split up. The group was appropriately named - the energy is just bursting out of the tracks on this record. 'Coming Through' starts the CD off with a positive explosion of sound. The guys are Irish and it seems natural that they should include a Van Morrison track - and very well done it is too - it's included on The Van Morrison Songbook. Bap Kennedy wrote most of the songs on the disc - in fact it would probably have been best not to include the traditional track - it doesn't really add anything to the mood.
