This is a 2CD release featuring 25 great love songs recorded at the Gleneagle Events Center in Killarney, Ireland. The whole idea of this album is love and as Daniel says in his introduction, it surprised him how many songs featuring love he has recorded over the years. Daniel's songwriting talents surface on six tracks including the title one. But the majority of the songs here are covers of old hits including Guy Mitchell's "Singing The Blues" and the Kris Kristofferson classic "For The Good Times". Daniel's faithful singing partner of many years Mary Duff joins him several times. His wife Majella sings the old Patsy Cline hit "Walking After Midnight" and then duets with her husband on the old country classic "Have I Told You Lately That I Love You". Although this is a nice album, for me it is not as good as one or two previous live recordings by the Irish superstar nor does it contain any gospel material. No doubt though, it will sell well to Daniel's many fans.
