Suni McGrath- Childgrove (Adelphi, 1972)

The 3rd LP from American 12-string guitarist, Suni McGrath. A recent and highly appreciated gift from our friend Owl. Right-off, I've been taken-in by McGrath's stellar rendition of "The Star of the County Down". His picking resonates with a sort of heart-sick, contemplative elegance that I'm just a sucker for. Its been on constant CONSTANT repeat. And though I've barely gotten past that first track, its already plain to see that this one'll be a gift that keeps on giving. Highly recommended.

Gorgeous guitar work. You don't see Sandy Bull mentioned often. I can see why it made such an impression on you. Thanks for sharing.
