5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best live albums I've listened to in 30 years!
As I stated above, this is a superior live album. All of the songs are fantastic. I live in the DC area and Runrig CD's are difficult to find, but I was lucky to run across this one in a folk music store. If you can get your hands on this CD (or ANY Runrig title, for that matter), it'll be well worth it. Even the songs performed in Scots Gaelic are superb! I...

2.0 out of 5 stars Somewhat dissapointed!
I found this group under the Scotlands celtic category. So I bought it! Wheres the Celtic? Other then the lead song (Urlar), they sounded more like a part russian part french pop rock band. I wasn't completly dissapointed though. "Only the brave" and "Alba" get my nod but make me cringe to think "This band considers themselves Celtic?"

5.0 out of 5 stars A good mix for those wishing to understand Runrig, May 2, 2002

This review is from: Transmiting Live (Audio CD)
From melancoly to lively & upbeat, Runrig still puts on a good show. Most will not be disappointed in their performance in this album. As you listen, you will come to feel the hurt and hunger, anger and joy that the Scots take out of life. All aspects, from the elemental wind and land to the primal emotions of man striving to survive love & life.
May your horizons be broadened by these choice songs as I have been.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's a great introduction to Runrig, November 20, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Transmiting Live (Audio CD)
Runrig is a Gaelic rock band hailing from Scotland. But not all songs are in Gaelic -- many are in English as well. Still, even if you don't know Gaelic, you'll enjoy their stuff. The first three songs on this live album (Urlar, Ard, and Edge of the World) are alone worth the price.

What is there not to like. Some songs are done in Gaelic and still great listening even not knowing much Gaelic vocabulary. Powerful and enjoyable and great musicians
