We have Skipinnish Records down as one of the finest of the 'new' brand of traditional music labels - almost all of their releases have, from memory, impressed in one way or another.
So here's a great chance to see if we are right. 20 tracks taken from their first dozen releases; a solid mix of music and song in the 'deluxe' catagory.
