It’s natural for Dick Gaughan to take a stab at ‘Both Sides The Tweed’ considering her long-professed love for B.B. King. It’s a brave and brilliant refocusing of Dick Gaughan energies, virtually a rebirth. Handful Of Earth is an amazing album, racked with beauty.Great Celtic right here!
Workers’ Song is a song that definitely grows on you and becomes an album favorite. I hope to keep hearing Dick Gaughan works for a long time to come. Scojun Waltzranders Hopsa is the more seemingly obscure song on Handful Of Earth that bear up best to repeated listening. So much energy, so exciting a sound.Dick Gaughan has created something that grabs you by the heart and gets you moving. The World Turned Upside Down - Dick Gaughan first major hit. Now Westlin Winds is just a great song and one well worth taking the time to give it a good listen. Craigie Hill is an underrated song: I like its lyrics and melody a lot. Erin-Go-Bragh is really the reason why I recommend buying Handful Of Earth.
