Tracks list

       This hefty three-disc collection of Scottish folk music is culled from
the late-'60s and '70s catalog of Transatlantic Records. While not necessarily
representative of all that was going on in the Scottish folk revival of that
period, Transatlantic was at the forefront with an impressive roster of artists
like Shelagh McDonald, Ian Campbell Folk Group, Silly Wizard, Archie Fisher,
Hamish Imlach, Bert Jansch, and many more. Of particular interest here are
several tracks by Owen Hand, a much revered folk singer who recorded two records
for Transatlantic before abandoning music altogether, lending him an almost
cult-like status. Most of the music here is predominantly traditional in nature,
though there are contemporary folk originals and folk-rock tracks as well. For
collectors on a budget, this is a strong and bountiful collection from a classic
period in U.K. folk music. ~ Timothy Monger
