I bought this CD two weeks
ago and it hasn't been out of the player the entire
time! Every piece is masterfully played; there are
no distractions like squeaks or glissandos. Every
note is perfect. The selection of pieces is terrific.
I recommend this CD highly.
James Tremblay
From the opening track, the blistering
Bucks of Oranmore, to the lush title track Message
of the Sea, Russell's playing is never less than
truly captivating, as always with meticulous attention
to detail. Every ornament is crisp and consise,
and standard classics like The Bonnie Banks of Loch
Lomond sound here as though they were written for
the guitar.
Mark Pearson
I bought this
after hearing one of the pieces, Farewell to Stromness,
on the radio a number of times. These pieces are
beautifully played, and David Russell has composed
wonderful arrangements of the well-known tunes.
Altogether, one of the most beautiful recordings
I have heard in a long time.
