Greatest Irish Bands/Sightingsof Bono DVD

 Not toobad not too good
My view of this album is that it was good but, being more into the more celtic influenced bands such as the Dubliners and Flogging Molly I was underwhelmed. Easy listening though.

 irish music hits
There are some really good songs on this compilation, most of which I knew before buying the cd. They have a lot of hits from very recognizable artists like U2's "Where the Streets Have no Name" and Sinead O Connor's "Nothing Compares 2 U". The bonus DVD has a cool little short film and Bono's in it for a bit, so if you're a big U2 fan you might want to check that out too. They go through a bunch of different genres too. It's not everyday that you'll see a celtic-pop band like the Corrs on the same album as punk-rockers (Stiff Little Fingers, The Undertones). My favorite track on the album is a toss up between the Pogues' "Fairtytale of New York" and Thin Lizzy's Whiskey in the Jar. I like the Pogues better as a band, but "Whiskey in the Jar" is a more traditional song. It's a good album for anyone who's into different genres or just looking for those hits from the past.
