Ireland's world-class ambassadors the Chieftains seem determined to play with anyone who is anyone, regardless of genre. On The Bells of Dublin, they do an exceptional job of teaming up with the likes of rockers Jackson Browne and Elvis Costello, as well as songbirds Marianne Faithfull, Rickie Lee Jones, Kate and Anna McGarrigle, and Nanci Griffith. There are many resplendent performances here, the least of which is Costello and company's raucous "St. Stephen's Day Murders." Like a banquet of traditional Irish fare with some updating to accommodate individual guests, Bells is the kind of holiday record you don't want to end. --Martin Keller

One of the best Christmas CDs ever February 10, 2010
L. G. Hanna (Chicago IL)
I never get tired of this CD. Even my brother (who generally hates Christmas music) claims this is his favorite. This is not just a thrown together holiday collection. It's a true compliation of interesting traditional solstice/Christmas music a la Chieftains.
Best Christmas CD ever! January 9, 2010
Patricia M. Carlton (Strafford, PA USA)
Whenever I want to give someone a collection of Christmas music, I always choose Bells of Dublin. The Chieftains are classic, their choice of songs not the usual run of the mill holiday fare. You won't hear Jingle Bells when you listen to this one. Burgess Meredith and Jackson Browne are only two of the many artists who contribute their voices to this CD.

The Chieftains outdid themselves with this wonderful cd. This remains such a perennial favorite that I've worn out two copies of the cd and have gifted it to friends.
It puts me in the spirit of the season, every year. I never get tired of any of it.

This Christmas album is perfection. For many years I've began playing it in our home on Thanksgiving day and continue playing it through Christmas. Our whole family enjoys it every year and will do so for many years to come.
