Folk album review: Skipinnish Live From The Ceilidh House

SKIPINNISHSkipinnish Live From The Ceilidh House****Skipinnish Records SKIPCD18, £11.74

The Tiree/Lochaber entrepreneurs run a tight ship in Oban where they operate the Skipinnish Ceilidh House, a popular music venue and meeting place. The atmosphere is bottled here in this live recording of Angus and Andrew leading on accordion, pipes and fiddle, with a string of top guest musicians you might find there. There's a Gaelic song or two among the feisty barn dances, reels and schottisches, and the only thing missing is the bar. But check the cover and you'll get the effect of a night of dramming. The sea runs uphill!
