ALLY M. (clarysage) from VANCOUVER, WA Reviewed on 11/6/2006...
founder of The Waterboys first solo release. Excellent CD but ofcourse everything the Waterboys do is excellent. If you are a Waterboys fan this is a must have. Recorded entirely at Findhorn in Scotland.
CD Reviews
One of the great ones

"I too was swept into being a Waterboys fan with This is the Sea and Fisherman's Blues. I would rate this right up there with those albums. Maybe not as consistently great musically as FBlues (there are two songs that go on too long in order to tell a story - City Full of Ghosts and Edinburgh Castle) but the songs that click amaze me.
Try Bring 'em All In" and "Building the City of Light." Wow. A very personal and spiritual album. Every time I see a copy in the dollar bin I buy it to give to someone!"
Best Mike Scott ever

"We have Fishermans Blues, we have This is sea BUT "bring em' all in" is absolutely the BEST of them of all...Hopefully Waterboys can reach back to something near this in the future, it was definitely a downhill with Universall Hall!!"

"I'm a Waterboy's fan. I like this album even more. It's like a slow moving waterboy's album; poetic, acoustic, lovely."
Beautiful
