Oops!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Live & in Session (Audio CD)
This is a great album. Just don't buy it as an MP3. Amazon has completely screwed up the album's track titles. The songs are all there, but they're almost all incorrectly labeled. For example: the track that is listed as being "Tranent Muir" is actually "Farewell to Fiunary". If you care about such details then you'd best buy the CD.

Blend the beauty of the traditional melodies with the power of modern rhythms,
By Tanis "Tanis Yvonne Somerville" (Seahurst, Washington) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Live & in Session (Audio CD)
For Scotland, the late 18th and early 19th century was a time of profound and uncomfortable changes. Economic and social structures were altered dramatically as the Industrial Revolution brought factories and mechanization to Scotland's rural world. At the same time, the Scottish Highlanders were being driven from their lands by the English conquerors, forced into the Lowlands, forbidden to practice their familiar customs. It was a difficult time, often a brutal time... and yet, this was a time of great poets, the likes of Robert Burns and Robert Tannahill. And it was a time of great music.
The Tannahill Weavers' diverse repertoire reflects the duality of Scotland's musical heritage. It embraces both the mystical quality of the Highlander's Celtic music, and the rollicking, sometimes even brawling qualities of the Lowlander's Anglo-Scots tunes. The Tannahill Weavers' arrangements blend the beauty of the traditional melodies with the power of modern rhythms. The penetrating sound of the Highland bagpipes is a thread of ancient memory running through it all.
