A' Jock Tamson's Bairns

by Jock Tamson's Bairns

On this single CD lucky listeners are treated to some 75 minutes of fantastic Scottish traditional music from one of the all time best bands. And why so much music? Well, this album incorporates most of the 1980 album 'Jock Tamson's Bairns' and all of the 1982 album 'The Lasses Fashion'. The latter is still regarded as one of the finest expressions of the great revival of traditional music that helped shape and create the contemporary Scottish identity, and was chosen as one of the all-time top ten albums - and the only 'folk' recording - alongside Elvis Presley, the Platters and the Smiths, by Richard Thompson for "Q" magazine!
