"Excellent 14-track initiation to the great Scottish folk singer, emphasising his politicised anger and lyricism, as well as acoustic and electric guitar skills. Spanning the '70s-00s, standouts include his anti-nationalist anthem "Both Sides Of The Tweed"".

"Good" - "For almost 50 years, Dick Gaughan has been one of the best known voices in Scottish music: powerful, passionate, committed, at times vitriolic, but capable of great tenderness and sensitivity too. This Topic retrospective is a timely refresher, covering his early years up to 1981's still stunning "Handful Of Earth" album".
