After my complaint as to a problem with the original CD, they quickly responded with a replacement CD that does function as expected. As to Christy Moore, he is definitly someone to include in your music collection especially for Irish and Celtic. It is great to hear excellently laid out protest songs that still ring true today. Brings back memories of Pete Seager and other U.S. folk players of the 60s. Christy even includes some good old sing along public house songs that display a lighter side to his tunes.
