Is is a great album but it includes some of the same songs on the other North Sea Gas CD'. Please check my Caledonian Connection review to find out how enthusiastic about this group. I am a 12 year long fan and I have all their CD's. Check this group out.

I had never even heard of North Sea Gas before I saw them live at Hootenany's in Inverness, Scotland, two years ago. I immediately bought all of their CDs that they were offering for sale and since then have been trying to get all of the out of print ones. These are great Scottish tunes, with a few instrumentals and mainly vocals. I recommend all of their CDs highly.

I heard this CD while visiting friends in Edinburgh and went straight to their computer and ordered it so it would be here when I got home to the states. In three days I've listened to it at least 20 times. The melodies are haunting and happy and the harmonies are achingly beautiful. I will certainly order another of their CD's. Wish they would tour the Southeastern US. I think they would be appreciated here. They remind me of the folk groups of the 60s only better.
