FIRST HEARING:
'In the old style' comes to mind but not in a derogatory way, more that this is unembellished by silly things being added in.
A solid wee trio back Lee on a selection of positive dance pieces.
Running through the CD are 4 Canadian Barn Dances, as is this opener.
Maybe they just like top meet lots of new people up there in the North.
Another good 'Heeuch' coming right up!
