COMD2006

Battlefield Band have been at the forefront of the resurgence of Scottish music and song. Since the 1970s they have pioneered a great diversity of instruments, ancient and modern as an integral part of the sound. Breaking down barriers with an inventiveness and instrumental prowess that defies categories and make this music exciting, creative and accessible to all.

This album was originally released in 1980

MELODY MAKER - Beauty courses through it and theres also an underlying fervour and real passion, though not of a knees-up, swing-kilt style.

BELFAST TELEGRAPH - An excellent showpiece for the bands singing, instrumental and songwriting talent.
