 An excellent cross section of Irish musicSep 20, 1999
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video. Having seen a concert in The Point Theatre, I was thrilled that the producers chose such a venue for this celebration of Irish music. Truly an experience that reaches the soul of Irish music in its many forms. Outstanding performances by Mary Black, Brian Kennedy, Sinead O'Connor, De Dannan and The Chieftains

Not Riverdance.. the REAL THINGAug 18, 2006
By Steven I. Ramm
"Steve Ramm "Anything Phonographic""
If you liked the music of Riverdance, check this out. It's the Real Thing. The Chieftains, aling with the Boys of the Lough (not here) and DeDanannn started the Irish Trad Music revival. Christy Moore does the same for vocals. Mary Black is Etheral! Leahy (a family) with the Chieftains is superb! I have no idea why Emmy Lou Harris is introducing this show but she's onlt there at the beginning. I LOVE this DVD! No talk. Just LOTS of great music with great camera work!

So Much from So LittleDec 04, 2002
Ireland is such a small island to put out the world's best music and best influenced music as its people moved about this world. Most all the groups are very traditional along with some new touches and thank goodness no U2, sorry. The almighty Chieftains play MC to this Gale Force concert and play with a few of the acts such as Leahy, these brothers and sisters of instruments & dance will blow you away as will Ashley MacIsaac's fiddle playing & kick- thank you Canada. Sharon Shannon's accordion and band is like Irish jazz and Altan never fail to amaze me. Stop me now or I will keep going! Yes it is too bad that Natalie MacMaster, The Saw Doctors, Young Dubliners and several other greats are missing, I guess we need a Gaelic Woodstock for this, but there is more than enough here for a great concert. I have the DVD and its 5.1 DD sound is all that it is supposed to be and the camera work is perfect as well. If you are looking for a very well rounded Gaelic Concert with a touch of newness then you've got it in Gale Force, find out where America got its foundation for its country music. Now, where is part two!? I also recommend The Chieftains DVD "Water from the Well", see great shots of Ireland and great music from all facets. See these old but young at musical heart guys play in churches, bars, civic halls, etc.; this is not a concert but all the songs are played live in whole in-between great words of wisdom. Hope this helps you out.

Celtic DreamsJun 21, 2000
By Jack O'Brien
I watched it first on PBS and couldn't wait to get a DVD copy for home. The performances are all great, especially that of Mary Black with her "Song for Ireland", sure to make everyone of Irish heritage want to visit home. You will enjoy this!
