One of the best kept secrets in music.......2001-07-18

This album was the first Paul Brady album I ever heard, since have Spirits Colliding and Songs and Crazy Dreams. Such gems! Spirits has Bela Fleck and the Wooten Brothers, the Corrs on back-up on a few songs (Just in Time, WOW!) Songs and Crazy Dreams is a compilation of early 'greatest hits'. Like all these other reviewers, many, many comparisons to Van Morrison, but Paul Brady never made it to 'the radio' in the US, only to musicians who have been covering his songs (very, very well, I might add) for years. His bluesy rhythms and riffs are balanced with gut-wrenching soulful heart breaking ballads that speak to the universal truths of heartache, found love, lost love and , many times, incredibly hopeful,funny and uplifting lyrics (hear The World is What You Make It on Spirits Colliding for a taste).

Get in on the best kept secret in the industry. ANYTHING by Paul Brady is money well spent, and this album tops the list.

An Irish Classic........2000-03-17

Paul Brady came to my attention in 1991 via a video for "Nobody Knows" on VH1. I had never heard of him before but with one view/listen to "Nobody Knows" I went out and purchased Trick or Treat. Since that time I have become a fan of Paul Brady. He'd been around much longer than I thought, and it's great that his early recordings have been re-released and digitally remastered. I chose Trick or Treat to review because I think it's a great place to start. I guess Brady could be conceptualized as Irish adult contemporary folk rock. He's a better songwriter than Chris DeBurgh and more folk-sounding. I guess he could be compared to Van Morrison or Bob Geldof in ways. Paul Brady is just sincere music for adults. Though I was 17 when I bought Trick or Treat, 9 years later it still sounds great and the songwriting still rings true. Paul has written songs that other artists have covered such as "Paradise is Here" on Tina Turner's 1986 Break Every Rule cd and "Luck of the Draw" on Bonnie Raitt's 1991 Luck of the Draw cd. I'd recommend Trick or Treat for any rock collector.
