Always one of our more sensual performers, Maria Doyle Kennedy’s return is still a touch disarming and one not likely to help her reintroduce her musical skills on a widespread level. Still, if Ms. Kennedy herself isn’t bothered then let’s not worry ourselves. ‘Fuckability’ is a hell of a record, full of hazy effects and deep and dirty sounds. Buried somewhere amongst it all is still one of the finest voices this country has ever produced and one that is obviously not averse to taking more chances than most of her contemporaries. Best thing she’s ever done by a mile.

Oddly, the acoustic version works better for these old ears.

With a large cast of players, the sound is full and lush and Maria’s voice is still a wondrous thing to behold
