I don't know what the previous reviewer was thinking when he said he hated the selections. The selections here make this collection a great one! You get a great slice of The Dubliner's art: bawdy, political, romantic, poetic, rollicking, everything. I dare you to not weep at least one tear to Raglan Road or Dublin in the Rare Auld Times. The songs are even more moving now with the still saddening loss of our beloved Luke Kelly. My only complaint, although minor, is that the balance of the sound in some tracks is off. Some tracks are WAY louder than the others and it's no fun adjusting the volume time and time again. But with a few Guinnesses or some Powers or Tyrconnell in your belly, who cares? This is a great collection. Touching, fun, heroic. And Irish. Get it.

Helo. I love Dubliners, but I hete selections. If you buy just selections by an artist then you will know twenty songs whitch taken the money for the presenter. I think the not-so-popular songs are the best, many many times
