Anam has been released in Germany in 1990(!). It doesn't include the
extra tracks. The first song Ri Na Cruinne is dedicated to the
One World One Voice project and appeared on that album before.
Maybe Anam is the final Clannad album, because the singer, Maire
Brennan, released a solo album a couple of weeks ago (simply called
'Maire', and a typical Clannad album - much better than Anam, imho).
