Synopsis:
Christy Moore is in every sense Ireland's folk hero. Mentor to a whole generation of Irish musicians, he holds a unique place in musical history. In l992 he broke all attendance records during 12 packed nights at the Point in Dublin. In the UK he fills concert halls around the country. In l997 he announced that he was taking an extended break from touring and recording. It was headline news in Ireland. So was his comeback which began in l999. Set to be an enormous best-seller his autobiography marries both songs and memories. Around 250 of his favourite lyrics is accompanied by his memories around the song itself and his life. Each entry is fresh, direct, honest and spontaneous - like the most intimate diary. Through it he charts his life from drunk to sober, bar-room guitar player to international singer-songwriter.
About the Author: Christy Moore was born in 1945 and made his first album with Dominic Behan. He sang with Planxty and after they disbanded in l981 with Moving Hearts. He began his solo work in l982 and has made over 30 albums in all, including The Christy Moore Collection in l992.
