Our Take

BARBARA DICKSON / ARCHIE FISHER / JOHN MACKINNON - The Fate O Charlie (Songs Of The Jacobite Rebellions)

In a world where the Jacobite rebellions are often overshadowed by more mainstream historical events, Barbara Dickson, Archie Fisher, and John Mackinnon breathe new life into these tales of rebellion, love, and loss with their latest collaboration, "The Fate O Charlie."

From the haunting melodies of "Bonnie Charlie's noo awa" to the rousing anthems of "Wha'll be King but Charlie," this album transports listeners back to a time when loyalty, betrayal, and passion ruled the Scottish Highlands.

Dickson's soulful vocals, Fisher's masterful guitar playing, and Mackinnon's expert fiddling create a sonic tapestry that is both enchanting and captivating. Each track is steeped in history and emotion, making it impossible not to be swept up in the drama of the Jacobite cause.

While some may argue that traditional Scottish folk music is a genre best left in the past, "The Fate O Charlie" proves that these timeless tales still have the power to move and inspire modern audiences.

So if you're looking for an album that combines history, heartache, and a healthy dose of rebellion, look no further than Barbara Dickson, Archie Fisher, and John Mackinnon's stunning collaboration. The fate of Charlie has never sounded so good.
