My first listen of this came in the height of the holiday shopping season, stuck in gridlock in a parking lot of a large mall. I had noticed the lack of movement before I got in my car, and took care of those things known to cause anxiety (food, water, calls made) in gridlock.

I saw a lot of drivers cursing, but I had a smile on my face, if not a giggle in my voice.

I first heard about this album as Robin Laing was touring Canada...on a music list dedicated to Canadian music. I was quite grateful to hear of it.

If you love a good dram of singlemalt, you'll want this album, as it celebrates the spirit of the spirit, as it were. It gives a bit of history, a litany of drams in two of the songs, and a lot of whimsy.

Robin Laing has a lovely voice, and I expect I would enjoy listening to him live, and hearing the stories the first reviewer describes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't miss this!, July 14, 1998

It was a pure chance that I heard a live performance of this title last year in Edinburgh, Scotland. Next day my first thing was to buy this CD. It's really a wonderful collection of whisky songs and stories. Unfortunately, most of the stories told during the show are missing from the CD, but the songs are there, and you will like them! :) My pick is the song called "Whisky and Woman".
