A lovely album!

Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2009

This reissue of one of Capercaillie's earliest albums is a welcome arrival. Karen Matheson's soaring voice and the wonderful instrumental work make this album an early Capercaillie gem.

Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2003

I bought this album back in 1987 direct from the band (and signed) at a gig in Wales, within three years I had worn out the vinyl, so I was unable to play it any more.
That should give you an idea of just how good this record is, many say that the early Capercaillie stuff is less honed than the their later stuff, but I think it has the rawness that the music needs to be shown off to it best.
The style is younger than the records they produce today, but they were younger, and we've all matured from 1987.

Crosswinds is the wonderful second album by Capercaillie.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 25, 2012

Verified Purchase

This was one of the last albums by Capercaillie I purchased. It features some stunning and glorious vocal deliveries from Karen Matheson and excellent playing from the rest of the band as we have now come to know and take for granted. But they did it here with this their second album. The album floats along like a swan gracefully gliding on a lake.

I find it very difficult to pick a particular favourite on this highly exceptional album. So instead I will choose the whole thing as every track on here is of a high standard which we have come to know as commonplace with Capercaillie albums of today. I find that the slower songs are sung with such feeling and grace and Karen Matheson's voice is perfect in its execution. The rest of the band's playing is immaculate and gives the songs richness and life.

As far as second albums go this is possibly one of the best I've heard. As the band have grown over the years in stature and performance and of course popularity, Capercaillie have just got better and better perfecting their sound and giving their fans (of which I am one) lots of joy and pleasure in hearing their songs on CD. This album is just beautiful and outstanding. Great effort.

The lass & the lads

This second album by the Scottish folk group Capercaillie is as beautiful as anything I`ve ever heard.
Karen Matheson has an ethereal, haunting voice, heard to greatest advantage on the several ballads on Crosswinds, including Soraidh Bhuam Gu Barraidh and Urnaigh A `Bhan-Thigreach, both extremely moving.
There`s an achingly mournful version of My Laggan Love played by Whistle & Recorder wizard Marc Duff, which segues into the suitably irrepressible and jaunty Fox On The Town. This in turn is followed by the final, heart-rending number An Ribhinn Donn, sung with all the evocative grace Karen Matheson has at her considerable disposal. What a voice! It`s a fine and pleasingly downbeat ending to a gorgeous album by this most rewarding of Celtic folk bands.
In between the slower, elegiac songs are more uptempo jigs, reels and the like, played with aplomb by the lads in the band. These only render Karen`s vocal tracks the more welcome, like a cool, sober breeze on a warm and frisky day.
The capercaillie is a large, often fierce bird native to the Scottish Highlands, found nowhere else. Capercaillie is a delightful, versatile group of excellent musicians who travel well.

Very early Capercaillie - quite different from the the later years and more traditional in sound. Interesting. Karen's voice at this point was very high and has changed remarkably over the years. Worth buying for those unfamiliar with the original sound of the band.

marvellous!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 26, 2014

I love this cd, every track is fresh, attractive and very catchy. It's fascinating to hear Capercaillie in their early period, where Karen is singing more traditionally, using her voice in a higher register than she now does. The backing and instrumentals are very fine and the players extremely skilful. Great recording. Buy it !
