"There is not a weak moment or superfluous note on the album. He demonstrates his mastery of the slow air on several tunes, including Gordon Duncan's lovely 'Lorient Mornings' and some plaintive traditional tunes. His immaculate phrasing and beautifully judged rhythmic sense is equally impressive on the faster sets, including Fred Morrison's lilting 'Farewell to Uist', Angus Grant's '250 to Vigo' and his own 'The 303'".
