REVIEW QUOTES
"Those who have seen the band play live will be well aware of their boisterous, high-energy shows...what passing fans may not be aware of is the quality of the songwriting and original music that Old Man Flanagan's Ghost are capable of. This album plays like a lost work from The Dubliners, with a dash of MacGowanesque punk energy and a nod to Stan Rogers' bearing and phrasing. There is an honesty and earnestness in the songs and how they are presented."

"They present a mixture of sensitive songs and good time barrel house music. There's a magical hand behind this album, the wizard is their producer: Murray Foster, [who's] found kindred spirits in Old Man Flanagan's Ghost, from the earthy no-frills-allowed songwriting of lead singer Stephen Lamb, to the core members of the band augmented by a slew of fine guest players. There's treasure in the hold of this Simple Little Boat."

"The quintet’s vocalist and front man Steve Lamb is the real deal, inviting and inspiring listeners to explore their rich musical and lyrical heritage with a voice that is both homespun and heartfelt. Fans of the Clancy Brothers, the Dubliners, the Irish Rovers and the Kingston Trio will want to wrap their ears around this one."

"The amazing fiddle performances are a show highlight. There's a lot of talent and high energy in this group of musicians. The show was excellent, with a mix of old traditional Scottish and Irish Ballads and new songs, some written by Steve Lamb. Lamb's rich, low voice is a lot like Paddy Reilly, one of Ireland's most beloved and famous balladeers."
