The Story so Far....
'The Story so Far....' Lúnasa's latest CD celebrating the band's musical journey ...
Re-visited and re-mixed, including two new recordings of Lúnasa classics 'Aibreann' and 'Morning Nightcap'(that's Pierre and The Wedding Reel set to those in the know!).
Includes tracks from all 6 Lúnasa albums.
'The Story So Far...' includes expansive liner notes on the band’s history and an extensive photo journal of the past 11 years. For the most part the photos used were those taken by the legendary Giorgia Bertazzi - whose work for Lúnasa includes the covers of "The Merry Sisters Of Fate", "The Kinnitty Sessions", "Sé" and now ... "The Story So Far ...".
