NO BAND on the recent Scottish folk scene has attracted nearly as much favourable attention as this trio, and if their recordings don't quite match up to their often incendiary live performances, this will still be an automatic entry on many people's album of the year list.
 Fiddler Aidan O'Rourke, guitarist Kris Drever and accordionist Martin Green have established a trademark sound that combines the forms – in skewed versions – and earthy virtues of traditional folk with a more experimental abandon and often hypnotic intensity.
 Those qualities are again in evidence here in the instrumental sets, all drawing on their own compositions.
 Drever complements the instrumentals with three songs, including Pete Seeger's Banks of Marble and a bonus track featuring the trio's take on The Beatles 1968 classic Dear Prudence on the initial pressing of the CD.
