Album Notes

Angus Mohr is Highland Rock and Roll. Bagpipes rock out with crashing guitars and pounding drums, blurring the lines between music genres while maintaining a style that is uniquely their own.

This is the first studio album from Celtic rockers Angus Mohr. Produced by Doug Haywood, it features several Angus Mohr originals: instrumentals such as "Angus' Overture," "Talisman," and "Burning Circles Lament" (with didgeridoo), and the epic "Paladin." There are also several songs for which the band has become known, including "Morning Dew," Bob Dylan's "The Times They Are A-Changin'," "Ring of Fire" from Johnny Cash, & Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here."

This album is a fine introduction to the music of Angus Mohr, and also a fitting compliment to the previous record, "Live at the Nomad: Celtic Concert for Tibet." It can be enjoyed on its own, or with a fine stout or single malt.
