CD Reviews

A very unusual CD

Jody Allen | US | 12/17/2001

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This CD captures a location and way of life that is almost lost to modern listeners. For those who want an unusual cd which captures a time and place with the rich detail of music and language, then this is a must purchase. I find myself being drawn back to the music of the western Isles as if I were a seafarer being drawn to home. The music is hauntingly vibrant."
