I listened to this once and now can't stop listening! Christy Moore has a great voice and is a fantastic balladeer. Wonderful! After hearing this CD, I bought every Christy Moore CD I could find. We're off to see him in Berlin in October - get this CD; you won't regret it!

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 performances.

Nice set by the great Christy Moore whose own words say it best:
"McIlhatton you blurt we need you, cry a million shaking men
Where are your sacks of barley, will your likes be seen again?
Heres a jig to the man and a reel to the drop and a swing to the girl he loves
May your fiddle play and poitín cure your company up "
McIlhatton
