Fantastic Music
Runrig are one of my favourite bands. They play really exciting music, Gaelic and English. I have followed them for many years and have seen them live. The singing and playing are the same live has on CD. Well worth listening too and people should buy their CDs and get the same buzz has I do.

A Trip Down Memory Lane.
I bought this to replace a very old and much-loved cassette I purchased when I first discovered Runrig in 1995.As a Scot I always loved the absolute Scottishness of Runrig and the fact that the singing is so clear and I can hear every word. They sing with pride for their country and with emotion.I wondered if I'd still feel the same after all these years but I was not disappointed and my husband has downloaded three albums for himself.If you are a Scot (or not), buy it!

My favourite Runrig CD!
Atmospheric and pacey with a good mix of tracks of varying emotions and that earthy Celtic beat that gets you tapping and singing along!

An excellent album
This album has always been one of my top 10 favourite albums of my lifetime. All the tracks are worth listening to over and over again.
