Robin Morton’s admiration for the Battlefield Band in all its many incarnations has driven the assembly of this collection; snapshots of 40 years of musical development that so effectively chart the band’s evolution. The Producer’s Choice is a superbly fitting celebration of it.
The latest offering from the Battlefield Band features 12 Scottish and Irish guest musicians, packed with great music and enough background information to satisfy your needs. A wonderful album that explores some of the roots and expressions of the shared tradition of Scotland and Ireland.
We head to the Outer Hebrides for Hebcelt Festival and in the first of a three part festival review Alice takes us through her festival highlights. Thursday includes Niteworks and Salsa Celtica.
The second in our Tradition mixes. It features both new and old from an old pub session from 1967 featuring Bobby Casey to Christy Moore, Kris Drever, Kate Rusby, Gavin Davenport and more!
