Album Description
For Celtic Thunder, Sharon Browne has teamed up with Grammy-nominated Irish songwriting and composing veteran Phil Coulter to produce a show that includes an eclectic mix of songs ranging from the traditional "Mountains of Mourne" and "Come By the Hills" to international hits such as "Brothers in Arms" and "Desperado," as well as original compositions by Coulter, who has written hits for Elvis Presley ("My Boy") and the Bay City Rollers, and performed with Van Morrison, Tom Jones, and the Rolling Stones. The ensemble numbers in Celtic Thunder reflect the power of the vocalists, who range in age from 14 to 40, and feature songs that celebrate a common Celtic heritage.

Do Not Must This Show! November 20, 2008
I have been reading through some of the several thousand reviews people have taken the time to write. You'll notice the things people keep saying are how talented the vocalists are, how beautiful the music is and how they watch the DVD over and over again. Be aware, the DVD is nothing compared to the live show. It's the difference between watching TV and experiencing reality. Whatever you have to do, go see the show! Buy this DVD and the two CD's. I saw the group perform here in Florida last week. I have seen hundreds of groups perform but this was the best show I have seen. Take a back seat Pink Floyd, Fleetwood Mac, Elton John, Hank Jr. and everyone else. I truely feel sorry for anyone who has not seen this show.
I was concerned about what may have happened to Damian's voice between 14 and 16. I was delighted to find that his voice is still the same. I have been trying to think of a male vocalist with a more beautiful voice but without success.
Everyone I know who had seen the show will use one word to describe it - "Beautiful". Beautiful music and beautiful voices. All the great things said in all these reviews are 100% correct. I credit Phil Coulter for a good deal of the success as he helped select the group members and picked the tunes (he wrote most of them). I hope we will soon be treated to more CD's followed by a second tour. I can't imagine how they could top this one but I will be there. I will never pass up a chance to see these guys perform especially Damian. I was very disappointed that they were so poorly promoted by PBS.
Excellent!! These guys are just terrific! Wonderful voices! November 20, 2008
One of the best vocal groups we've heard in years! They're individually and collectively just wonderful! Very refreshing to say the least!
Wonderful! November 11, 2008
I first heard this group (reluctantly) on PBS when my husband requested I watch. I couldn't stop watching! I love this CD and can't wait to see and hear them in person. I also bought the CD so I can listen to them in my car!
Celtic Thunder: The Show November 10, 2008
A friend who saw the show on PBS made a pledge to receive the CD/DVD pack.
She loaned the DVD to me. When I saw it I was sold. I needed a copy for my collection.
FANTASTIC November 9, 2008
Saw this show on TV and it was awesome--usually don't go in for this type of music but these guys are phenomenal-if you close your eyes you can go back to the "highlands" with their music--can't wait for a new show to come out--hopefully with the songs from the 2nd CD.
