This review is from: Too-Rye-Ay (Audio CD)

In my opinion this is the best album/cd ever made.I have the origional cd and the updated version with the extra tracks.Kevin Rowland was at his best on this classic recording.The songs flow together very smooth as if you were listening to Van Morrison Moondance or Astral Weeks.The Uptempo more resembles Tupelo Honey and Street Choir.If you buy one disc this year you should buy this disc.

5.0 out of 5 stars The most underated CD ever!, October 16, 1999

Too-Rye-Ay is one of the most underated CD's of all time. It includes Dexy's greatest hit Come On Eileen. There are many other great songs on this CD as well such as Liars A to E, Jackie Wilson Said, The Celtic Soul Brothers, and Old. All of the songs are well executed and worth the purchase.

4.0 out of 5 stars Quite good..., January 18, 1999

Believe me, there's a lot more to this album than Come On Eileen. Although there are a number of less-than-impressive songs, the majority of the album is absolutely scorching, with great tracks like Plan B and Until I Believe In My Soul. The bonus cuts are for the most part non-essential (although some of the live stuff is pretty good), but as a whole the album is well worth owning.
