5 out of 5 stars ENERGETIC/ENLIGHTENING.......2002-06-15

Put this on and try to sit still, I DARE YOU! This alternate (I can't classify this one) music style will get your toes a tappin' and your body swaying, it gets into your soul and won't let go.
Buy it as a treat to yourself and you won't regret it, I promise.

5 out of 5 stars No pigeonhole, just glorious music.......2001-06-13

Flairck, a Dutch instrumental group which resists classification into a particular genre, calls its product chamber music with classical, wide-ranging folk (Celtic, Gypsy, etc.), blues, and jazz influences. This two-CD set seems to be the only Flairck item on sale in the United States, and consists of a live performance of some of their best-known numbers. The rapidfire "Sofia" is my own favorite. The only thing that comes to mind for comparison is Mason Williams's "Classical Gas".

5 out of 5 stars An amazing experience............2000-02-07

listening Flairck is one of the most beautifull things that has ever happened to me. this Alive album is an amazing selection of beautifull songs, together with an incredible sence of order and oportunity.... i mean, songs folow one after the other in a perfectly natural order.... in a couple of words, if you are looking for an acoustic album which makes you dream, this is the album.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful live performance... as ever.......1999-12-15

This live collection of themes is focused in the album "The Emigrant" (1989) and the classics from 1978 to 1984. All pieces were rearranged and re-energized in a amazing way... two spectacular hours whith the masters of "ethno-acoustic rock".
