I was completely unaware of so much that was in this interview. I did not know about the long-term documentation that Ciarán Tanham undertook and the work his did to capture the Lansdowne Road concert is legendary. That concert video is brilliant.

As in many of your interviews, I become aware of "Corr treasures" that lie locked up and hidden inside vaults in non-descript buildings. wink.gif While listening, I immediately imagined of some future Peter Jackson, à la the the Beatles Get Back documentary, resurrecting all those additional shots from different camera angles and all the footage that would show us more how Jim, Sharon, Caroline and Andrea worked together in different settings - and John Hughes, too. It was interesting to hear John Hughes identified here as a "Fifth Corr", a musician in his own right filling more than the mere role of manager. Of course, realistically I don't expect anything will be done with these Corr treasures but, just the same, I am comforted that the material is likely still there, just in case! I am glad that Mr. Tanham has taken affirmative steps to preserve much of the fruits of his labour.

It was wonderful to hear, from yet another source, about the joy that the Corrs bring to those who work with them as well as the respect in which they are held. And it's sweet to hear that little bit in the interview about the many charitable activities in which Andrea engages that are kept "under the radar."

It came across in this interview how the band might feel comfortable and candid with him and his camera following them around.

Simon, great investigative work. As with the best detectives, you have the talent of identifying the appropriate person to speak with to get the best available information. I agree with your interviewee that you are a gifted interviewer and you conduct your discussions with respect and class. THANK YOU for another enlightening episode of your CorrsCast series!
