When you queue up a Blue Coast Records album, you can be sure of one thing: you’re in for a masterclass on musicianship. Eamonn Flynn is no exception to this rule. Immensely skilled on the piano, Flynn has an ear for voicing, for bringing out the depths of beauty of the piano. On The King of The Cats, he approaches both traditional Irish songs as well as some gorgeous compositions of his own. The album has a sense of introspection and meditation. Through music, Flynn dedicates an ode to the diverse beauty of Ireland and the emotions it inspires. The audiophile quality recording that producer Cookie Marenco brings only further highlights the warm and full sound that Flynn’s piano playing has to offer. Rich in harmony, expansive in sound, full of emotional depth and breadth, The King of The Cats is a journey from start to finish, one that you will enjoy.

…Stockfisch has reproduced the live feel of this extraordinary group with great precision. The separation of the instrumentation (especially between guitar and violin, and accordions) eliminates the occasional dint of live recording. The balance of the sound seems proportionate. Vocals never impinge on the music, and vice versa. Live At Stockfisch Studio is a towering achievement.
