"Rather than assembling old tracks, the feted Irish singer has re-recorded 43 songs from his epic career for this three-CD retrospective, adjusting lyrics and adding two new songs. It's both entertainment and history lesson, recalling the turmoil and injustices of the UK's recent past on cuts like The Birmingham Six, and celebrating Irish joy on, say, The Ballad of Ruby Walsh ... A still unique mix of politics, humour and lyricism".

"While much of the material here is indeed retrospective, it's not a compilation, more a career overview from a new mindset. These days Moore has settled into a comfortable musical partnership with guitarist Declan Sinnott that enables him to deliver his stories of injustice, humanity, love and mischief with the sort of controlled intimacy that serves them best and he clearly feels he's in better musical shape to do them properly now. He's right, too, and while some of the original recordings date back several decades, their enduring relevance is quite striking".
