Scottish Country Dancing
Customer Review: Bargain of the week! A real treat.
Scottish and Irish dance music gets to me maybe because my Father was Irish and my Mother was part Scottish. I danced at school from an early age and was formally taught and I continued well into my twenties and I danced to some good live bands. I am a hi fi enthusiast and a musician and I have a decent collection of Scottish and Irish music on tape and CD but this CD which I only received this morning and am listening through for the second time is my favourite Scottish dance band recording now.
The recording quality is good with plenty of depth and correct tonal balance with the amp bass and treble controls set at flat and stereo is excellent. Equipment used Denon PMA355UK amp with Marantz CD5400 player and Technics RP-F350 phones. Believe me, my set up soons shows up poor recordings. Sounds good in the car too.
I was feeling really depressed earlier(lost my husband just before Christmas)this music has cheered me up and I even tried to dance but at 66 years young I soon got tired.
As usual free super saver was despatched before estimated date so CD and DVDs ordered with it arrived early and at under ?3 a real bargain and I must admit I was a bit worried about the price and whether the recording would be poor but it is first class.
Thank you Amazon and can I have this dance please 
Customer Review: Bouncy & Brilliant Bobby Does Again
Bobby Crowe and his SCD are one of the best bands to dance to, but unfortunately do not issue many CDs. This one is better than the recent issues by any other band. The dances are well timed, well played(with excellent lift where required) and the tunes are well selected to suit each dance. My favourite versions of the Eightsome Reel and ‘Holin Bus’ for sure. However the “piece de resistance” is the faultless recording of Highland Cathedral, immense chords, plus the harmony, weel dun Bob.
