"It's all of an intimately pitched piece but with highlights including Christine Primrose's moving Gaelic addendum to The Blantyre Explosion, South Carolina-reared harmonica master Don Meade and New York fiddler Tony Demarco seasoning The Whole Chicken in the Soup set, and the peerless Jim Kilpatrick reconfirming that pipe band drumming can be as emotionally uplifting as the pipes themselves on Gillespie's Hornpipe".

"Although the band's line-up has evolved drastically over the years they've somehow managed seamlessly to maintain their musical identity. Pulling all the strands together with a noteworthy (but well integrated) guest list, "Beg & Borrow" is unmistakably a Battlefield album, and one of the best albums to come from them in a while: great listening (and comprehensively annotated too - a bonus)".
