Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
It's fitting that video channel VH1 is partnered with the obscenely attractive sibs of the Corrs for this live recording, captured in Dublin, near the band's hometown in Ireland. Given the stiff competition in the pop arena and the Corrs' rather limited touring, looks have doubtless played a part in their global ascent, although, judging by Live in Dublin, they've earned some props along the way. Both U2's Bono and Rolling Stones guitarist Ron Wood guest, the latter on the Corrs' cover of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing" (though oddly not on their reading of "Ruby Tuesday"). Neil Young's "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" rounds out the tribute triumvirate, and fans can expect surprisingly clear-eyed versions of major and lesser hits like "Breathless" and "Runaway," plus a spirited, fiddle-fueled traditional in "Joy of Life/Trout in the Bath." --Kim Hughes

Product Description
'VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin' was produced by Mitchell Froom (Paul McCartney, Crowded House) - includes new renditions of the Corrs' hits, including 'Runaway', 'Would You Be Happier?', 'So Young', 'Queen of Hollywood', and of course, their U.S. breakthrough smash, 'Breathless.' Steeped in the traditional folk music of their homeland, but invested with a vibrant and electric modern pop flavor, the Dundalk, Ireland-based sibling quartet have earned acclaim around the globe for their eclectic, crowd-pleasing live performances. Atlantic Records. 2002.

5 out of 5 stars Cool Music...........2007-05-31

I love the sound of the Coors....especially "When the Stars Go Blue"..they sang some oldies too that sounded great...Love this CD!!

5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2006-08-24

This was my first Corrs CD and it won't be the last. Great energy.

5 out of 5 stars A 'Real Good' and 'Intimate' Live Album.......2006-05-18

When the Corrs deliver it 'live', they deliver it real good. Whether it is 'covers' or 'originals', it is as good a live album as I have heard. The intimacy with the audience is evident and all the songs stand-up well 'live'. In my view, this is the best 'Corrs' album out there. Bono pops up on two tracks as an added bonus.

5 out of 5 stars An Excellent Live Album From A Band With A Unique Sound!!!.......2005-04-26

This album was recorded live in Dublin and is a breath of fresh air to to the listener. This band sounds just as good live as they do in their studio recorded albums which is a rarity these days. This album also proves that the band is willing to play cover songs written by other artists which is a major accomplishment in itself.As an aside it was with great dismay that I learned that Caroline Corr, the band's drummer is now happily married. No doubt male hearts all over the world were broken upon hearing this news!!!I wish Caroline, Andrea, Sharon and Jim every success which they so richly deserve.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Concert!.......2004-04-07

How can you beat the beautiful Corrs playing in Dublin, Ireland on St. Patrick's day? Great mix of pop and traditional music, super concert. Give me more Corrs - I can't get enough!!! (especially here in the states) AAA+++
