I first discovered Christy as a member of the Irish supergroup, Planxty. Then I began listening to his solo work. This CD contains a nice selection of songs, from the jaunty "Lanigan's Ball" to the poignant ballad, "Only Our Rivers Run Free". If you have never heard Christy, and would like a great introductory CD, this one is a wonderful place to start. I never skip a song when I listen to this CD!

Great CD by great artist. Everything Christy Moore does is great. This is no exception. Keep it up. He signs many original songs.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good tunes but mournful, December 24, 2008

Why does Christy Moore have a propensity towards singing depressing tunes? Don't get me wrong, he is a master of the depressing and mournful tune. And, yet he can be really funny at times. But, where is the joy? Admittedly its much easier to pen a dirge than to write with heartfelt joy. Perhaps Christy needs to change his vision of life - he could start by listening to Bach and Mozart but I suspect that won't be enough to change the record as it appears embedded in a groove.
