'Pleasure's Coin' is a rip-roaring, toe-tapping tour de force of a second album. One cannot fail to note that these are three of the most talented musicians on the Scottish (and wider) Folk scene, and the presence of some of the biggest names in traditional music accompanying Lori Watson, Innes Watson and Johnny Somerville shows that they've long since shed the "newcomer" label.

It is comforting, and indicative of the youthful vigor of Scotland's folk scene - to hear influences from contemporary line-ups such as 'Lau' and perhaps even a young 'Malinky' weaved throughout this beautifully refined and impeccably produced album. To those who claim that folk music is a stayed, old fashioned genre for conservative purists - I would insist that they listen to 'Pleasure's Coin'.
