Media Reviews

	Glorious Scotland offers 14 examples of the energy and zest that have marked the flowering of Scotland's young tradition and confirms Foot Stompin's tireless devotion to documenting it.
	As with books, never judge CDs by their covers. Or their titles. While outwardly it might only appeal to shortbread-loving tourists, inside Glorious Scotland offers 14 examples of the energy and zest that have marked the flowering of Scotland's young tradition and confirms Foot Stompin's tireless devotion to documenting it. Featuring blazin' fiddlers, fine singers and representations both from those faithfully renewing and refining traditional styles and radical thinkers who are skilfully updating and stretching them, this is state of the art. and all this - from Anna Massie's zippy flatpicking guitar to Kris Drever's brilliantly alive singing of Cold Blow with Fine Friday and that impish wee genius, Martyn Bennett's marrying of Gaelic song with club culture - comes before we have a culture commission.
