Greentrax's Celtic Collections, Vol. 1, focuses on folk songs of
Scotland. These contemporary interpretations are steeped in the
stripped-down simplicity of their '60s and '70s forefathers, making
this a lovely collection that doesn't fool the listener into buying
generic new age versions of folk classics. With solid acts like the
McCalmans, Janet Russell, and the Sangsters -- the latter do a
wonderfully rich version of the tragic love song "Helen of
Kirkonnel" -- Songs of Scotland delivers a healthy pint of culture,
melody, and windswept heather. ~ James Christopher Monger
