This is a marvellous social history not only of recent Irish history but also of the development of Christy Moore from typical folkie through activist to veteran performer. The box of six CDs will delight the true fan of folk music. It will enthrall new fans. It will bring back four decades of memories to casual listeners. It may not be found great by some of his concertgoers like those who shout and whistle through half of each song and call him to sing "the Blackwater song" ("Bright Blue Rose").
