Cover notes from Live at the Point (1994) - written by Christy Moore.


From Carnegie Hall to Carndonagh Carnival and home again by Caesar's Palace in Bunclody. In countless thousands of Ballad lounges, Concert Halls and Auditoriums wondering how we can make this place happen. Crank up the amps, check the lights, balance the sound, change the strings and count the chairs but it's all to no avail without the magic ingredient - the LISTENERS.

Wherever people congregate and surrender their ears to a performing artist something unique occurs. Be it tens or hundreds or thousands they join together to become one audience and the atmosphere created in the magic thread that holds it all together, flowing from room to stage and back again, yourselves and myself sparking off each other, it keeps me going - THANK YOU.
