An absolutely lovely, first-rate contemporary Scottish folk album featuring Battlefield Band multi-instrumentalist Alan Reid and relative newcomer Rob Van Sante, whose styles mesh perfectly. This is an irresistible album, with beautiful instrumental work and the rich, mellowed vocals that only true Celts can muster. Flawless song selection as well, running the gamut between contemporary and traditional, with none of it sounding the least bit forced. This is an elegant, evocative record, which will hold up well to years of repeated auditions. Recommended!
