and performing for all of them. This debut album was digitally recorded as live

CC's
fave track | Porth
Ui Mhuirghaesa | | retrospect |
The
album had a magical innocence that marks it as a classic. All of the elements
of their music was layed out here - awesome songs, interplay, harmonies and novel
instrumentation marked The Storm Thieves out right away. Many songs on this album
continue in their solo and band repetoires.
Porth Ui Mhuirghaesa was released
by CC on his Storming album and Forget About You he re-recorded
a new version on his Close the Circle CD. Now's your
chance to hear the original recording recorded at 4am! CCs classic Long Day's
Waiting was re-recorded on Storming and on Chris &
Dan's Just Be Real CD - Dan's Snow & The Fire classic
being re-recorded on the latter.
It stands as a wonderful snapshot of
each of their musical histories - together and apart. | | if
