Review - Album Details :
Previously Only Available Via the Band's Own Website. A True Retrospective of their Career with Fresh in Concert Renditions of all the Best from their Long, Distinguish Catalog of Songs.Review - Amazon.com :
Clannad is made up of singer-harpist Maire Brennan, her brother Ciaran, and their twin uncles, Padraig and Noel Duggan. They all hail from a Donegal gaeltacht (gaelic-speaking region) and began playing music in the Brennan family pub. At first, they were more appreciated on the Continent than at home, as Irish-language singing was not then in vogue, but are now one of Ireland's most-beloved bands. These live performances date from 1996 and prove beyond any doubt that the group sounds as polished live as they do on studio albums. The material covers 30 years of repertoire; Dulaman, which is about gathering seaweed on the shore, dates from the very beginning of their career, when they were still primarily an acoustic band with slight jazzy edge. The now-hackneyed Theme From Harry's Game recalls the ethereal, gooey excesses of the "Celtic Twilight" marketing concept--it has not worn nearly so well. --Christina RodenCustomer review - 2005-03-08
- Clannad Live in ConcertDon't ecpect anything new from Clannad on this Album. There are
11 well known tracks for everyone who loves and like the sound of Irish music and you can listen those songs live which are
recorded over several shows from their 1996 tour. But it is well worth to buy it and just relax with Marie Brennans beautiful voice and a great music.

- so much repeatI am big Clannad fan. Have everything they have done from the start. This concert is not much different than other concert versions they have out, and just more repeat of repeats. Some albums I now have 5 and 6 copies of the same song. Very good, but not worth the money if you have all their other stuff. Songs are not my favorites either.
