A much adored figure in the U.K. and his native Ireland, the late Rory Gallagher made his name as a fearsome guitar player specializing in high-octane, no-frills blues and rock & roll. While his albums are certainly worth investigating, it's in the live setting that Gallagher really cut loose. LIVE AT MONTREUX nicely captures the singer-guitarist in full-tilt boogie, showcasing his deft fingerpicking abilities ("Out on the Western Plain"), his mastery of the blues ("Tore Down"), and the fiery enthusiasm that made him such a beloved performer ("Last of the Independents"). While the sound quality is occasionally rough, it only adds to the charm of these grittily explosive performances.
Recording information: 1975 - 1985.Dirty Linen (p.87) - "The CD concludes with the pyrotechnic 'Shin Kicker,' and the iconic sitar-sounding guitar psychedelia of 'Philby'."

| | VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin CD (2002)
Live At Montreux
$6.79 
This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Summer Wine."
Somewhat more mysteriously, Rolling Stone Ron Wood also turns up on what sounds dangerously close to a lounge version of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing," but this minor faux pas is redeemed by the Irish folk medley "Joy of Life/Trout in the Bath" which arguably features more full-on Irishness than the Dublin production of ...

ALEXANDRA MONTANO“Alexandra Montano is an absolutely marvelous singer who combines her natural musicality witha splendid mastery of a very broad repertoire. It is always a pleasure to hear her sing.” --Philip Glass “A major vocal discovery, her gorgeous voice like dark velvet at the bottom, radiant and clear at the top.” -- John Von Rhein, the Chicago TribuneAlexandra Montano is one of the most versatile singers now performing. Her stunningly rich and beautiful voice finds a home in music across the spectrum – from the simple yet vibrant textures of early music to new mysteries of compositions from the 20th and 21st centuries. Ms. Montano has delivered powerful and personal interpretations in recordings and performances of Dufay, Hildegard von Bingen, Handel, Mozart, Mahler, Debussy and Fauré. She made herBroadway debut in the fall of 1996 in Julie Taymor's Juan Darien, appeared in The difficulties in crossing the field composed by David Lang and played by the Kronos Quartet at the San Francisco Repertory Theater in April 1999. As a champion of contemporary repertoire she plays keyboards and sings in tours with Philip Glass. On his Sony Classics recording of Naqoyqatsi she is a featured soloist along with Yo Yo Ma. Alexandra Montano has premiered operas of Tan Dun and Meredith Monk. She has performed and toured music of the Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque periods with the Waverly Consort, Ensemble for Early Music, Voices of Ascension, Concert Royal and The Newberry Consort. In 2001, she made her Avery Fisher Hall debut singing Bach's Mass in B minor with Musica Sacra. She sang Mahler’s Songs of a Wayfarer at Tanglewood in 2002 and Handel’s Messiah at Carnegie Hall in 2003. In 2005, Ms. Montano performed a variety of contemporary works in new settings: the Mother in Yoshio Torikai’s opera Red Beads presented by Mabou Mines, with Universal Sacred Music; the featured soloist in Malachevsky’s He comes conducted by Susanne Peck at New York’s Ethical Culture; and in Paul Crabtree’s An American Persephone and Frank Martin’s Et la vie l’emporta with Cantori conducted by Mark Shapiro. In 2006 she sang in Steven Blier’s Festival of Songs, in David Lang’s new opera Anatomy Theater at Mass MOCA, and she premiered ...
