COMD2052

This is a re-release of the bands classic Topic album, 'Stand Easy', first released in 1979 to which we have added four tracks from an EP called 'Preview', produced on a limited basis by Temple in 1980. Great value from the great Scottish band who still lead the way.

THE SCOTSMAN - These recordings catch Battlefield Band showing the questing, inquisitive musical spirit that was to produce arguably their finest studio work in the Eighties.

ROCK N REEL - Throughout that cool Scots swagger and vibrancy is there in copious amounts ... fifteen years on it is still as fresh.

FOLK BUZZ - Thanks to Temple, these recordings are no longer history, a very worthwhile reissue of a classic.
