"You sorta know what you'll get with a Christy Moore album. That warm, intimate voice, some nifty guitar accompaniments and tight production values from Declan Sinnott; and a well-balanced set that incorporates anger, sorrow, hurt, love, humour, nostalgia and philosophy ... Nothing earth-shattering here, then, although this does feel like one of his better collections. His voice seems to caress the speakers with a mixture of loving care and snarling disgust while the quality of the material he's homed in on this time around is probably more consistently good than it has often been in the past ... "Oblivious" must end up with a Best Original Song track nomination at the next Folk Awards".
