LINER NOTES

Well what happened on December 26, 2004 has affected us all. The extent of this human tragedy is difficult to get your head around. As always we as a nation have been unbelievably generous and charitable. Long after the Tsunami has left the front pages, the suffering and the rebuilding of shattered lives will continue. Everybody wanted to do something to help out in some small way. This album is the product of this collective effort of some of Ireland's best musical talents. Thanks to all of them - thank you for buying the CD. Enjoy! Ray D'arcy.

OTHER NOTES

This is a really nice tribute album in the scheme of things. Especially if you enjoy acoustic music. The "Even Better than the Real Thing" series of CDs originates with 100.1 TODAY FM in Ireland. The first two volumes contained artists acoustically reinterpreting popular songs by other other artists. There were no U2 covers on these earlier two volumes but the name was nicked from a U2 song.

Volume three was put together after the tsunami of December 2004. This time out the release is a double cd set, and contains only acoustic covers of U2 material. These aren't no name artists either. There are some very familiar and popular artists from Ireland contributing to this double CD set. And proceeds are going towards a good cause. It's a worthy CD to pick up if you get the chance.
