Guide Review - Kathy Mattea - Roses

For this album Kathy Mattea has explored her long love of the Celtic sound and paid tribute to her folk roots that first led her to perform in the music field. This album features several instruments, including Celtic whistles, fiddle, guitar, concertina and harmonium.

Filled with instrumentals like "Guns of Love," as well as songs like "Ashes in the Wind," which is a moving tribute to a friend who died prematurely.

This album for anyone who likes to really listen to the song's message. The songs were all handpicked for their meaning and they are thought provoking by nature. While there are some slower songs, most are up-tempo and they are all easy on the ears.
