Our Take

As I settled down with a wee dram in hand to listen to Robin Laing's latest offering, "One For The Road," I couldn't help but feel like I was in for a treat. Known for his witty lyrics and infectious melodies, Laing has been a stalwart in the folk music scene for decades.

From the moment the first track, "Whisky Kisses," started playing, I was hooked. Laing's rich, velvety voice effortlessly weaves tales of love, loss, and of course, whisky. The way he captures the essence of a traditional Scottish pub session is nothing short of magical.

Each song on "One For The Road" feels like a journey through the Highlands, with Laing as our guide. From the haunting "Hills of Home" to the rollicking "Bothwell Street," there's a sense of nostalgia and warmth that permeates every note.

One of the standout tracks on the album has to be "A Dram to Remember," a heartfelt ballad that showcases Laing's storytelling prowess. With each listen, I found myself transported to a cosy fireside, glass of whisky in hand, listening to Laing's tales unfold before me.

Overall, "One For The Road" is a masterclass in storytelling through music. Robin Laing has once again proven why he is a legend in the folk music world. So grab a dram, put on this album, and let yourself be taken on a journey through the Scottish countryside. Slàinte!
