The Acoustic Album came into being basically to give people a souvenir to bring home with them after Barry's acoustic concerts. However, word spread about this beautiful album and people around the world who have been unable to attend an acoustic show to date demanded that it be make available to the general public - and that's just what we've done.

It's a collection of previously released material and some never-before released material. Some of the tracks are live, which gives them a very special and intimate feeling. The styles covered are blues, Irish and singer-songwriter material. For example, Barry take one of his own favourite songs "Mountains of Mourne" (an old Irish song) and gives it his own interpretation and it is now a firm favourite in his acoustic shows. Likewise, he's taken one of his own songs "Sheilagh" and brought it back to it's more original setting (he writes all his songs on an acoustic guitar) and he also tells a short story about how the song came into being. He's joined on the song "I Wonder" by his cousin Pat McManus, well-known in his own right as a member of Mama's Boys & Celtus.

So from the opening track "Nobody's Girl" to the last piece of music "The Sunset Waltz" allow Barry to transport you magically to a place where an acoustic guitar and a human voice is all that is needed for him to tell you his stories.
