Irish Folk Songs for Women, Vol. 2

Singer-songwriter Lori Holland’s 1960 album Irish Folk Songs for Women is her effort to compile Irish songs of emotional and experiential significance for female performers. The result, a 14-track album of Holland’s gentle alto accompanied by guitar, includes ballads revealing the feminine perspective in tales of marriage, heartbreak, and mourning. Liner notes include an artist biography, a full description of each song, and lyrics.
