Our Take
Our Take
CLANNAD's "In A Lifetime" reissue makes one thing abundantly clear: Irish music will never die, despite our best efforts to drink it into oblivion. This Deluxe Bookpack is a treasure trove for fans, with remastered versions of classic tracks like "Theme from Harry's Game" and "In A Lifetime" featuring Bono of U2 fame.
The ethereal vocals of lead singer Moya Brennan soar over traditional Celtic instrumentation, creating a hauntingly beautiful soundscape that will transport you straight to the misty hills of Ireland. The addition of rare live recordings and unreleased tracks gives listeners a behind-the-scenes look at one of the most influential bands in Irish music history.
However, this reissue is not without its flaws. The packaging is a bit excessive, with a hefty bookpack that could double as a weapon in times of need. And while the remastered tracks sound crisp and polished, some purists may argue that it takes away from the raw, authentic sound of the original recordings.
Overall, CLANNAD's "In A Lifetime" (Deluxe Bookpack) is a must-have for die-hard fans and a welcome introduction for newcomers to the world of Irish music. So pour yourself a pint of Guinness, slip on some headphones, and let CLANNAD whisk you away to a land of ancient myths and timeless melodies.
