    Too bad you didn't ask a year ago. I bought that record and then gave
    it away -- the big orchestra and weak rock accompaniment were simply too
    EZ for my taste. Furthermore, there were no Celtic vocals. Absolutely
    the least interesting Stivell I've ever encountered. And ~$12, too...

    Stivell has released the most stunning authentic Celtic folksongs in
    simple authentic arrangements I've ever heard. Unfortunately, I have
    no idea which albums to get.

    But his Breton is quite beautiful.
