CD Reviews

Absolute Gem!

R. J MOSS | Alice Springs, Australia | 08/10/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Yes. An absolute gem, and no qualms about the judicious selection of prime time, Gaughan. Fellow Scot crooner, Dougie McLean once interrupted his set in Alice Springs to explain, if not apologise, that his preference was for 'sad songs'. Dougie's voice has a purity, almost to the point of innocence, in his laments. Dick Gaughan is the counterpoint: a lived in instrument whose experience can nail the lyric interests with deep mourning. Yes, the selection is mostly sad ballads, the 'muckle sangs' capped by the awesome, 'Both Sides of the Tweed'. Dick's writing is up there with the traditional stuff. Voice and guitar: the Scot's contempary folk scene has no equal."
