5.0 out of 5 stars Folk 'n' Hell, 22 Oct 2011
This review is from: Folk 'n' Hell (Audio CD)
Contemporary Scottish music at it's best. I bought this for myself; and for a mate. We first heard this while on a tour of The Highlands; and it was the better half of the tour for us!! You'll like it if you get it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Scottish folk into new perspective, 6 Mar 2002
This review is from: Folk 'n' Hell (Audio CD)
Folk 'n' hell is a collection of contemporary Scottish folk music mixed with hip-hop, indie and has a rocky/pop sound.
Not all tracks are good; others have a message. Keeping the old traditions and folklore. But in modern Scotland the commercial American interests in castles and Nessie have already done damage.
This cd is a refreshing way on ballads, jigs and men in skirts. Includes instrumental songs and mixed electric and authentic sounds from the Highlands. The booklet gives information on the various artists.

5.0 out of 5 stars A superior sampler of exciting new Scottish folk music, 15 Mar 1998
By yasso@interport.net - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Folk 'n' Hell (Audio CD)
I normally dread samplers, thinking that I will find perhaps one or two great performers stuck among tracks that I wouldn't want to hear twice; this is a happy exception.

This collection contains 17 tracks representing different performers of new Scottish music. The style is a combination of traditional folk melody with some jazz and rock augmentation. For the most part, the instruments are traditional guitar, pipes and drum (no bagpipes) with a little slide guitar, electric augmentation and synthesizer thrown in very unobtrusively. Roughly 3/4 of the album has vocal tracks, about three of which are already stuck in my head after a few listens.

My knowledge of Scottish music before this was limited to anonymous bagpiping and folk players and Mouth Music, a group which tends toward a more extreme synthesizer rock/hip-hop fusion with traditional Scottish singing; this album falls solidly in the middle with some modern jazz and rock influences thrown in. The recording has wonderful atmosphere and is worth hearing on headphones. END

5.0 out of 5 stars Magnifico Daddio, 24 May 2009
By D. Ditta "capeclone" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Folk 'n' Hell (Audio CD)
I bought this cd for my dad. He had it when I was growing up and we painted signs together. Last year he lost it and so I went hunting. It is his favorite cd and I was so happy with the prompt delivery of a fully functioning product. I listened to the entire cd and it plays great, no skips, no nothing........very pleased.
