First time on CD for this fine album by Dundee’s John Ellis - it was originally released on LP in 1976 on the Polydor label. Good arrangements from a six piece line up. A donation from the proceeds will be made to The Maggie’s Cancer Care Centre in Dundee. First released over 30 years ago and strongly argued to be Scotland's best ever country dance band. This will be a 'must buy' by every bandleader in the country, so why should you be any different. This appears to be a somewhat 'limited edition' so best move quickly.
