Wolfstone - Almost An Island

(May 2002) 10 tracks: The Piper and the Shrew * Elav the Terrible * The Queen of Argyll * Where the Summers Go * La Grand Nuit du Port de Peche * 5/4 Madness * Davie's Last Reel * Jericho * All Our Dreams * The Panda.

The popular Celtic rock band.

This album is the pinnacle of what Wolfstone have achieved in the way of modernised, mellowed-out Celtic music.

As ever, the instrumental tracks are wonderfully structured, and take you on a ride that lets you build stories in your mind to accompany the exquisite soundscapes that the group create.

Duncan Chisholm (fiddle), Wayne MacKenzie (bass), Stephen Saint (pipes, whistles) and Stuart Eaglesham (guitars, vocals) with Alyn Cosker (drums), Phil Cunningham (keyboards, accordion), Couscous MacAfferty (cittern) and Brian McNeill (tambourine).
