Traditional Music of Scotland

by N/A

Overview

Green Linnet's series of budget compilations under their Celtophile label provide a grand introduction to the breadth and depth of Celtic music in Ireland, Scotland and Britain, ranging from the traditional to the contemporary, represented by artists such as the Tannahill Weavers, Capercaillie and Silly Wizard, among others. This particular collection is a strong one, with some muscular performances selected from the Green Linnet catalog. ~ Steven McDonald
