Moore than meets the eye

ICONS of Irish music don’t come much bigger than Christy Moore. The 68-year-old singer has just released a new album, Where I Come From.

Moore than meets the eye

A three CD collection, it features 43 songs culled from a five-decade career, and all are either written or co-written by the man himself.

“I started to think about how scattered my songs were,” says the native of Newbridge, Co Kildare. “I haven’t written that many songs when you consider I’ve been recording for 45 years. They are scattered over a lot of different albums and I just got the idea that it would be nice, while I’m still able to sing, to gather them together and present them in a collection.”
