Truly, my favorite album of its vein, from the incredibly beautiful and sad "Peggy Gordon" (lovers of "I once loved a lass" will adore this one) "Colier Laddie" and "Kiss the children" wonderful tunes of lads and lassies gone work the mines and mills (I come from many poor Pensylvania coliers, working the dusky diamonds for the company store, so this is potent stuff!) I highly reccommend it to anyone intereted in some great Scottish music.

Voices like the angels. Really beautiful, classic folk songs. I am partial to the Irish, but this did not disappoint.

I can't rave enough about this CD. I'm just sorry that it took me so long to find it! The Corries were absolutely fantastic. You don't need to be Scottish to enjoy their music, but if you are Scottish this is a MUST.

this is a mix of beautiful, authentic Scottish tunes by two of the greatest musicians i've ever heard. if you like the corries and; well, scotch or irish music in general, you might also try 'Planxty', 'Old Blind Dogs', 'the Cottars', 'the Fureys', 'Rankin Family', 'Mary Bergin' or the 'the Chieftains'. -the old blind dogs are scottish folk, all the others play mostly irish-folk tunes, but i still recommend listening to them if you are into scottish-folk ('Planxty' is a definite must)
