 The Corrs - Unplugged
The Corrs sound comfortably at home on this orchestrally enhanced acoustic gig, recorded at Ardmore Studios outside Dublin in early October 1999.
With only two studio albums to their credit, it may seem a bit early to go for an Unplugged rerun, but the inclusion of two new Corrs-penned songs and a trio of previously unheard covers, in addition to the live greatest hits, means there's something fresh to enjoy.
An unplugged session also establishes clearly that the Corrs, in danger of being perceived as pop puppets, are a real band who play and sing beautifully and can deliver the goods live.

The album is actually the soundtrack from the MTV Unplugged video, which is also worth a watch.
There are few bands that have the vocal talents of the Corrs, led by the youngest sister, Andrea.
It's a must for any Corrs fan, but it's also great to introduce you to the band as well, as a "greatest hits" of sorts.

When the Corrs were recently in Times Square filming a video for "Irresistible," the locals were wondering just who was at the heart of all that high-tech action.
For the Corrs, the precarious pedestrian island they were commandeering in the middle of zooming Times Square traffic was a beachhead in their renewed quest to conquer America.
But if you really want to appreciate the Corrs, all you have to do is listen to them harmonize live, accompanied by their bandleading brother Jim.

The Corrs are very America-oriented band in terms of producing their latest album and scheduling the tours.
The Corrs use power of their musical gift, Andrea’s voice and Irish heritage, that established their sound in modern pop music and gained them a lot of fans all over the world, mainly in British Isles and Australia [where they tour in winter when it’s too miserable in Ireland].
The Corrs will never manage to come to Russia and even when they do come here I will be in some other place, that’s for sure.

 The Corrs Unplugged album review
This album is a collection of The Corrs' greatest hits and it also contains 5 new tracks, two original Corrs songs and three covers.
What's interesting on this album is the fact that the band decided to have an orchestra join them and it was a good decision because it adds to the magic of the songs.
There are two new aspects n this track : the trumpet, a premier in a Corrs song and the second one is the funny (it is!:)) "ola" that Andrea puts in right after the trumpet's solo.

 The Corrs   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The Corrs come from a musical family, their parents, Gerry and Jean Corr, were also musicians.
What differentiates The Corrs from the rest of their generation, is that they have talent, sadly they seem to be determined to throw it all away, as with each successive album, they become more and more like any other mediocre pop group.
The Corrs were always popular in their native Ireland, and never really took off anywhere else, not even after the release off their second album, not that is until they released a cover version of the Fleetwood Mac classic 'Dreams'.

Unplugged offers devotees over an hour to wallow in plush, string-upholstered arrangements of songs from their two studio albums as well as introducing two new Corrs originals and three cover versions.
The new originals are enjoyable enough though fairly forgettable by Corrs standards, especially the congenial though lightweight By Your Side.
But Radio, the first single release, has an evocative verse with a sultry Andrea Corr vocal, a chorus of rather predictable sentiment, but notable for a suitably melancholic fiddle from sister Sharon.

 DVD Times: Region 2 Reviews: Corrs: Unplugged
Being a fan of The Corrs, I was really looking forward to this new release featuring their popular MTV Unplugged session first broadcast last year.
The CD only features 14 of these tracks (Dreams being the one that is missing) while according the the press blurb, the DVD also features more than the MTV showing so we're not getting to bad a deal.

With the Corrs’ new 143/Lava/Atlantic release, IN BLUE, the Irish group has perfected their trademark melding of modern pop and traditional Celtic sounds, a diverse and original sonic approach that has made them an unqualified international sensation.
With this record, the Corrs bring their immediately identifiable sound to the next level, a place where rock, pop, dance, folk, and Celtic tradition meet to make magic.
Here in America, the Corrs were among the best-received artists to perform at 1998’s Guinness Fleadh Festival, while their October ‘98 U.S. club tour saw sold-out gigs at Chicago’s Park West, Boston’s Paradise, and New York City’s Mercury Lounge and Irving Plaza.

Encouragingly, the two new songs, "Radio" and "At Your Side", are well up to the usual Corrs standard, while much of the already familiar material benefits from tasty orchestral arrangements--"What Can I Do" in particular works better than the dance re-mix hit version.
usually, unplugged albums bring out different sides to artists but this to me ads whole new depth to their music.

The songs that are featured on this DVD are a kind of the best of the Corrs from both of their released albums, which includes the pop hits 'So Young', 'Runaway' and 'What Can I do'.

 The Corrs - Unplugged
Huge in the U.K. for a couple of years now, the Corrs are poised to become chart toppers in America as well.
In addition to what was then their current hits, The Corrs also debut two songs from their album "In Blue" ("Radio" and "At Your Side") which are arguably superior than what would wind up on that studio album one year later.
A genuine highlight of the entire performance would have to be the cover version of Jimmy McCarthy's "No Frontiers" in which Andrea Corr leaves the stage giving the vocal spotlight over to sisters Sharon and Caroline who give a stirring heartfelt performance here.
