I don't know, but probably not. It's Michael Kerry's solo Irish mandolin album.

You can buy Michael Kerry's The Rocky Road at CD Baby. (http://cdbaby.com/cd/michaelkerry) Amazon's out of stock. Nice to use CD Baby instead...
Great recording!

My CDBaby copy arrived last fryday. I've listened to the CD a few times this weekend; it's very good. It seems to be just guitar and mandolin, both played by Kerry, without other overdubs, so it's a good album to listen to, to see what's doable on the mandolin with just a pair of hands.

Oh, and many extra points to him for marrying someone from my native country.

Glauber ... glad you liked it! There are some oustanding sets on this album and I, for one, like Kerry's very light touch. I wish I had his ability to colour tunes so individually and soulfully.

I wish to recommend another CD on which Michael Kerry plays as a special guest: "High Clouds; Greenfield Dance Band" (Great Meadow Music (http://www.greatmeadowmusic.com)). #I especially like "The Silver Spire" and "The Rambler/Music in the Glen." #Another spendid mandolinist, Peter Siegel, plays on this same disc. #David Kaynor, the principal fiddler of this band has exquisite taste in creating a contra dance music collection and plays like an angel. #Check out his own title tune, the waltz, "High Clouds."
