Gorgeous May 13, 2006 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I read somewhere that once you enter your forties and begin to become a Grumpy Old Person you are much less likely to listen to new music. Since I am in my forties and not quite ready to be a GOP, I thought I would deliberately try something new, and I'm so glad I did because this is lovely! Karen Matheson's voice is gorgeous and evokes the wild beauty of her native Argyll. Most of the songs are in Gaelic and therefore utterly incomprehensible to me but in fact that's part of the charm because you really appreciate the human voice as an instrument.

I bought this on the strength of Karen's magical performance in Rob Roy, and I feel as if I have struck a vein of the purest gold. On my first hearing I thought, lovely voice, great musicians (wonder what the words mean). Second hearing, sheer quality, this is Special. The final song brought tears to my manly eyes and it felt good! Third hearing, this CD is now one of my most precious possessions.
