notes

Those who are familiar with Maggie through her hits, such as 'Moonlight Shadow', 'To France' and her unique song writing skills as on 'Everytime we Touch' (Cascada) ‘Family Man’ (Daryl Hall and John Oates) will find much to savour on ‘ROWAN’.

From the blues/funk of ‘Cado Belle’, her collaboration with pioneering composer Mike Oldfield, duets with Jack Bruce (Cream), Dave Gilmour (Pink Floyd) and gaelic band Runrig on through her thoughtful solo albums of the ‘90s, Maggie Reilly has covered a lot of musical ground. Now with her new album, she has returned to her Scottish folk roots to deliver some career best performances.

  • ROWAN
    author: D M Clement

    Absolutely beautiful! I didn't know Maggie Reilly until I discovered a video-clip on 'Away wi' the faeries'. I then tried to find this title with other companies I have an account with but without success ... but fortunately now I got it :-) Thank you so much!

  • AMAZING
    author: Kenjiro Ota

    I think this album is made up of fine acoustic traditional music. I especially like the beautiful voice of Maggie Reilly. I am her fan since she sang "Moonlight Shadow"

  • author: Willem

    Wow a fantastic album her lovely voice is overwhelming me I,am speechless, thank you very much Maggie for this album I.ll look forward for your next musical adventure.( my favourite number is still Echoes and What About Tomorrows Children !! )

  • Wonderful !
    author: Jerome from France

    As a Mike Oldfield fan, I prefer instrumentals and never buy CDs with songs, because I am not particularly touched by this type of music, but here... seems to be the exception which confirms the rule for me ! Seeing a solo album of Maggie Reilly and in tribute to her great association with Oldfield in the 80's, I ordered it and I absolutely don't regret it. It is a jewel ! All tracks are very good, but my favorites are Away wi'the faeries, Heartsong and Wild Mountain Thyme. Now, dear Maggie, I will keep an eye on you. Thank you !

  • Rowan Good
    author: Ron in Little Rock

    I heard "Who Knows Where the Time Goes?" on NPR Thistle and Shamrock show and bought the CD. This song is my favorite, but the entire CD is delightful.

  • Maybe Her Best
    author: Raymond Benson

    This could very well be Maggie's best album! Gorgeous!

  • Rowan
    author: Paul Hoffmann

    This is as good a celtic CD as you will find by any artist. I highly recommend it.

  • All things are quite silent...
    author: Nate

    ..when Maggie sings. A voice clear as crystal (Crystal Gazing?) and material nonpareil, Maggie will leave you "quite silent" with her amazing voice. A beautiful album, new life to "Who Knows Where the Time Goes," and my favorite "All things are quite silent."

  • Rowan
    author: Michael DiGiorgio

    This CD is pure spirital magic. Her voice and choice of material takes me to a higher level. Now one of my favorite CDs

  • Simply great!!!
    author: Philipp

    Great music from one of the greatest artists! Maggie has made the songs to her own songs! And - as ever - her voice is simply beautiful!

  • Songs of longing and sweet sadness
    author: Tim Fatchen

    This is simply superb. Sad and sweet without being maudlin. Full of longing and unfulfilled aching. A deep insight and interpretation of traditional songs in a seamless blend with new compositions. Songs for an autumn afternoon, and remembering...

    It's simply a wonderful album. Read the review on my website.

  • Maggie... where have you been?
    author: charles

    I have loved Maggie's music ever since I first heard Moonlight Shadow. Her latest CD, Rowan, contains some beautiful melodies, accompanied by her own familiar but special sound. Maggie. when are you going to play in North America?

  • Magical!
    author: Jeff H.

    When I first heard Maggie Reilly sing on Michael Oldfield's 1983 Crisis album I fell in love with her voice. She has a Magical Tranquility. On Rowan her voice is just as fresh as the first time I heard it. This is a beautiful CD and I would highly recommend it to all. Thanks CD Baby for making music of great artists like Maggie Reilly available here in the states.

  • author: Eliot G, Minnesota

    Great work again for Maggie! I'm more a fan of her pop material but this album is still stunning in its arrangements and haunting yet crystalline vocals! Maggie still rules. Especially loved tracks 1, 3, 6 and 10! My one complaint is the red song title lettering on back of the gorgeous CD package is difficult to read in certain lighting, but that does not tarnish the magic inside! I await her next aural adventure!

  • Thank you Maggie!!!
    author: Dimitrios R.

    This voice is actually another gift of God to all of us. Yes, this collection of songs is great too. Thank you Maggie!!!

  • Comforting
    author: Sue

    Always enjoy Maggies voice whatever she does.Fan since her Mike Oldfield days.

  • Beautiful... Feels like heaven
    author: Wojtek, Poland

    This is a truly magical album that immediately became one of my lifetime favourites. Maggie's voice souds as if an angel was singing to you. Recommended for long autumn evenings especially with the final "Wild Mountain Thyme" that brings memories of summer. This album will move your heart forever.
