The second album of Gaelic songs from Margaret Stewart, combined with Allan MacDonald's innovative and lyrical piobaireachd style. The clarity and precision of Margaret's voice make it appreciable even to those who are not generally keen on Gaelic song, and her deft intonation will impress those who are already fans. Allan's Highland pipes set off Margaret's voice in the haunting airs, and his smallpipes provide a fitting backing for his own vocals.

Allan MacDonald (Highland pipes, jaws harp, smallpipes, vocals), and Margaret Stewart (vocals) with Rona Lightfoot (vocals), Ingrid Henderson (vocals, clarsach, piano), Iain MacDonald (flute, concertina, whistle), James Mackintosh (percussion), Malcolm Stitt (guitar, cittern), Allan Henderson (keyboards, fiddle) and Iain MacFarlane (fiddle).
