Review by Rohan Kagalkar

Stay Strong Bithibh Laidir Rester Fort, the latest album by Blair Douglas, is a soulful and contemplative collection of traditional Scottish music. The album features a diverse range of instruments including the accordion, fiddle, and bagpipes, which are woven together to create a rich and textured sound.

From the haunting melody of the opening track "An Tobar" to the upbeat and lively "Tha Mi Sgith," the album showcases Douglas' mastery of traditional Scottish music. His compositions are both powerful and poignant, evoking a range of emotions from joy to sadness.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Road to Drumleman," a hauntingly beautiful piece that showcases Douglas' skill on the accordion. The piece has a melancholy quality that is both haunting and uplifting at the same time.

About Blair Douglas

Accordionist, keyboardist and founding member of Celtic Rock band between 1973-74 and 1978-79. His first solo album "Celtology" came out in 1984 and featured songs rather than his better known instrumental style. Subsequent CDs are remarkable because the material is largely Blair's own.
