I bought this cd to get Christy Moore's live version of Lisdoonvarna. I should have bought two. This CD is well on its way to being worn out. Lisdoonvarna alone is worth the price of airfare to hear this wonderful singer deliver it live--and this is the best version I've ever heard. It is especially good really loud and off the couch. The other songs hold up well too and are as good in their quality as in their variety. But all are sung by a man who obviously loves to sing and delivers what he brought with each one. You may like some songs more than others--but there isn't a bad one in the bunch.
Besides the stand alone great Lisdoonvarna, I really enjoyed discovering "Biko Drum" and "Johnny Don't Go."

This is one of Christy Moore's best CD performances. He has a way of making you feel that you are hearing him live. This CD is one of his best alltime live performances.

This guy really shines in a live venue. I love this performance. It goes from the slightly irreverent to the deeply touching. His is my very favorite version of "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face."
