This compilation was first released as a showcase for the then fledgling Greentrax label and has gone on to be a Greentrax best-seller. It is also a sample of the very best of Scottish music and song as well as a showcase of the recordings available from Greentrax Recordings at that time. The tracks were carefully chosen and represent some of the very best singers/musicians and music and songs from Scotland. It should continue to be a popular purchase on the Celtic Collections Budget Series. Track 19 'The Sleeping Tune' is added in memory of the great, late Gordon Duncan. 2021 is the 35th Anniversary of Greentrax Recordings and the album celebrates that event.
