"Dave has released another CD in the Blow for Peace series. This one is aptly called "Another Blow for Peace". On this album he is joined by his long term friend and master guitarist, Vincent (Vinny) Baker. It maintains the same theme of peace and the love of God. It contains 14 tracks of beautiful, peaceful music and songs played on harmonica and guitar. The album was specifically compiled as an aid to relaxation and meditation. It is up-lifting, inspirational and very, very, peaceful. It is an ideal gift for someone you care for. -- Music Editor, Ireland's Eye

"Stirring, compelling and spiritually uplifting music played by two of the countries best exponents of the harmonica. I have heard Noel play in the past and his style is unlike any other I have heard. I particularly liked his "Bride's Favourite Selection of Jigs". Daves "easy" style and especially his version of "Amazing Grace, Serenity Prayer" has to be heard. The talents of Noel and Dave are further exemplified by the brilliance of Vincent Baker and Joe Meehan. -- Danny Murray, World-Link

"It is my very pleasant task to write a few words about a uniquely different CD. - "A Blow for Peace." All the more pleasing to me when both of these artists are my friends and neighbours. Indeed, I would describe Dave as being my "friend forever." I have played many gigs with both Dave and Noel and it has always been a memorable musical experience for me.

Dave has the ability to coax every emotion from this beautiful expressive instrument – the harmonica - while Noel, without question, plays Irish traditional music as it should be played. Every tune he makes his own and the result is what one would expect from a true champion , which Noel undoubtedly is.

This CD is produced for lovers of peace and of our beautiful Irish traditional music. It deserves a place in every music lover’s collection. Slow down, relax and enjoy "A Blow for Peace". --Ollie Kennedy, musician, songwriter and composer, Mullingar.
