Review of a live performance of Paddy Keenan and Tommy O’Sullivan in
October 2001 stating ....“Together...they are the finest pipes-and-guitar
duo ever...Keenan’s playing was a masterful blend of sweetness and fiery
power...O’Sullivan added subtly percussive and driving guitar. His vocal
numbers...were gorgeous and soulful.”
