"The Best Ever Scottish Compilation’ is quite simply the best collection of Scottish music available. A double album presenting our finest musicians on the accordion, the pipes, the fiddle, the celtic harp, plus the human voice and much, much more.
These amazingly varied albums draw together examples from the huge range of styles and sounds that make up what is generally known as Scottish/Celtic music. Over 130 minutes of fantastic music on this double CD.
Dip into this compilation and you will find romantic ballads, soothing mood music, classic jigs and reels to get you dancing, and astonishing artists whose music lifts the soul. In fact there’s something for everyone.
"... there is some excellent material present, ranging from the neo-ceilidh and Shooglenifty-flavoured Porridge Men (just add salt) to classy balladeer John McDermott and solidly entertaining, robustly melodic The Clydesiders. Enter the Haggis offer full-blown bagpipe-led Celtic rock, there’s an appearance from much respected folk musician Freeland Barbour, and The Kingdom Folk Band produce country-inspired acoustic folk which manages to hit the right spot. Add to the mixture a couple of live recordings from Jimmy Shand and you’ve a surprisingly rich and varied collection which showcases well the wide range of the REL label, and of contemporary Scottish ’folk’ music." Sean McGhee - Rock ’n’ Reel"
