The Album Review Club - Week #216 (page 1412) - Together Alone - Crowded House

It just never seems as interesting as the other choices that we have. And although there's plenty of Ireland to go at, I just can't get the image of Dublin being a weekend piss-up destination out of my head and I'd hate that.
We were only in Dublin for the direct flight in and back. That city reminded me of any international city like London or NYC. Our favourite part of visiting that area was taking a boat tour around Ireland's Eye (loved the Puffins and Seals) and hiking towards Baily Lighthouse in Howth, a short train ride, but more like a world away from Dublin.

Our favourite part of the overall visit itself was on the west coast in and around Galway, the Aran Islands, and all there was to see around Killarney area, where we spent the most time. Northern Ireland is next in the plans when we have more time for our next visit to the island. I'm sure the Derry jury would approve of that.

And of course I'm enjoying this week's selection thus far. I've got many songs I know already from the Playlist, Rock Evolution, and 4 off of this from their 1996 compilation Recurring Dream CD, but looking forward to hearing this in its entirety.

Given the weather last week does that mean you're one of the blessed few who've done the Ring of Kerry in 100% visibility ? In which case you need to go back again sometime because the mizzle is part of the attraction :-)

I know you are a fan of the band but the fact that you haven't heard the full album makes it interesting again.
