Reviews of: Spirit Of The Glen Journeyby Royal Scots Dragoon Guards
Reviews ... A SURPRISINGLY GOOD BLEND OF MUSIC This is a surprisingly good blend of music there's not just the sound of bagpipes and drums here. There's also guitars violins flute piano keyboards and backing vocals. Each track builds up into a good rich sounding blend of music . I've always liked the sound of the royal scots dragoon guards ever since they played amazing grace on the old seven inch forty five r p m singles but because of the different instruments and backing vocals involved in this c d the music is a richer sound. Most of the tracks are easily recognisable in this c d and classed as easy listening Celtic medley starts of with Danny boy drifts into woman of Ireland (first heard that on mike oldfields voyager c d ) and finishes of with a well known lively Celtic tune ( the title escapes me ) . Dear Lord and Father and in Flanders Field for my money takes the edge of what would have been a perfect easy listening c d there is singing involved witch spoils these two tracks, and for the fallen is a small tribute to all the lost soldiers (no complaints about that ) . To sum up a good relaxing chill out c d witch will not collect dust on my shelf. 2009-01-05 absolutely beautiful despite being 20 and liking alot of stuff ranging to metal and krunk and rap, ive always liked bagpipes in a way, but this album is the best stuff ive heard so far. made better by the fact that im already familiar with the origional versions of the songs. was told by a few people that proper bagpipe music can make you cry because of the calling deep down it causes, and i had to try hard not to join my grandfather in that sense :) 2008-12-27 WOW Just by watching the video clip, this disc has just got to be awesome, you can feel the heart and soul in the piping, ordered this for my partner for christmas cannot wait to hear it in all its passionate glory. Well done guys truly awesome. 2008-12-11 spirit of the glen 2 I bought this as my late father loved the bagpipes, and he would have enjoyed this recording. It is so moving I found myself crying. Our soldiers are so brave and to record this in basra is a marvellous achievement 2008-12-08 Another classic collection born from bravery! This is the second disc in the collection by the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards, and both are as good as each other. Judging by the average 4 stars for the previous disc, you can see why I'm giving this a 5 star! (In addition to this, while the war was not universally popular, these soldiers are only doing their job and I feel by buying this disc you can send them your support!) Back to the review, this collection is different from any other which I have heard in the past. I can almost feel the emotion of the band during the recording! Very good collection. 2008-12-02 |
