Salm & Soul Ref: RR038 Total contrast, but one simple aim - to praise God in music. In January 2005, through the Celtic Connections Festival, twelve Gaelic psalm singers met with the fifteen-strong Mount Zion C.P.C.A. Church choir from Alabama. Glasgow Cathedral was the venue, Margaret Bennett one of the organisers, and Bethesda Hospice in Stornoway the recipient of CD profits. Superb singing, and phenomenal piano from Soul player Irvin Anderson.

Price: £10.20 £11.99 with VAT at 17.5% (European Union only)Three Peace Sweet - Blue Skies Ref: MMCD0501 Third album from Three Peace Sweet. Many rhythmic styles from around the world interlaced with their own contemporary folk tunes and songs. Features guests from Scotland and the United States. Title track ‘Blue Skies’ is a haunting pipe ballad – in contrast ‘S.S. Thorfinn’ is a medium-tempo song based on the true story of a near disaster at sea in 1953. However, in typical TPS fashion, there is still plenty of energetic ‘stomp’ music to keep the feet tapping and a live audience jumping.

Jennifer Wilson - A Dancing Master Remembered Ref: JWPCD01 Piano maestress Jennifer worked with dance teacher Bill Ireland for over thirty years, so her knowledge of his favourite tunes and musical styles is very accurate. Having finally been persuaded into the studio, Jennifer has produced a superb album of the music Bill loved, in the solo piano style he so admired. Full-length dances played with tremendous skill and huge enthusiasm. 'Just' piano and drums, yet a massively satisfying sound.

Since their inception they have juggled University courses with gigging and have emerged as a highly accomplished, tight unit with wonderfully intricate arrangements, but without having lost sight of the drive and 'soul' of the music. Folk On Tap magazine said "[their] playing is excellent, the arrangements inventive, the choice of tunes interesting and the whole imbued with the drive and energy of youth". This new CD sees them more experienced both in terms of live performance and music, but without losing sight of the essential qualities which made them stand out from other groups of young musicians. The mix is as eclectic as before taking its sources from Britain, Europe and beyond. Each CD has out-sold the previous one and this one should consolidate their position as one of the best on the UK scene.

This CD presents a set of songs - some well-known, others not - with a loose connection with Liverpool. Hughie's two previous CDs have been two of Fellside's best sellers and there is no reason to suppose this one will not be as he still maintains a following beyond the folk scene in the MOR market with Spinners fans.

Colin Campbell - Songs Collection Ref: CCRD005 Sometimes funny, sometimes sad, sometimes humorous and sometimes cutting, Colin's songs always reveal a true insight into Highland life. And yes, here's the Road Rage Cowboy pootling along on his tractor with a look of unadulterated wicked delight on his face, knowing that no-one can pass him! Colin must have had great fun making this DVD, for some of the songs are shot with live action to illustrate the story. On the stage, on the go, in the studio, Colin radiates justified satisfaction and a decidedly irreligious sense of humour!
