Your voice is like my favourite Malt whisky. I love it
"...Your voice is like my favourite Malt whisky. I love it. I love all the songs. I love the arrangements. Give me a voice (especially your voice), good stories and simple, effective and tasteful accompaniments - that is all that is needed to make a beautiful performance and recording, as this undoubtedly is. It is folk music at its best. "..Roy Bailey

"There is a grainy conviction and warmth in Scott Murray's first solo album, his rough hewn vocals enjoying fine support from Sangsters, with whom he has sung for twenty years, and fine accompaniments from instrumentalists including fiddlers Amy Geddes and Jenny Gardner and accordionist Martin Green."
