Reviews
The casual excellance of his playing betrays not only a considerable talent but also a respect and devotion to the music,which has been the hallmark of Keane`s playing for a long time now. This is hardly surprising for a man cradled among the giants of the last generation:Leo Rowsome,Willy Clancy,Joe Cooley,Tommy Potts,Sonny Brogan,John Kelly,Paddy Taylor and Tommy Reck. - Jim Kelly - Irish Music Magazine.

Siobhan Long - "The Irish Times"
