Released in 1995 the first album from Battlefield Band after a gap of 2½ years was long awaited and had been much requested. The band had been working very hard over the past few years with trips you just don't say "No" to, such as India, Sri Lanka and Egypt. Threads is a good one.

THE DAILY TELEGRAPH A case of familiarity breeding respect.

EXPRESS & STAR, Wolverhampton If you are feeling down, throw away the Prozac and listen to this.

ROCK 'N' REEL ... will ultimately be regarded as one of the best albums of contemporary folk ever to be released, and would therefore unhesitatingly recommend its purchase.
