Generations is a CD from Three Peace Sweet, Orkney's favourite folk group. A brilliantly innovative album which saunters with great casual style along the right side of that fine l ine dividing “exploratory genius” and “desperately trying to be different”. Three Peace Sweet have the spark of genius in copious quantity, and fine folk-band musicianship to fan the flame. With some of their own tunes, and some traditional, this Orkney-based band meld and mould the music superbly. Great fiddle hornpipes…with a reggae slant, traditional jigs in flying style, clear-sightedly emotional songs of island life today. With richly mellifluous vocals and expert fingers, a grand sense of pace and variety, Three Peace Sweet bring Orkney and its music into the fast lane. The North Crossing; Glare And The Hawk; Leaving The Island; Pirates Jig; The Holding Of The Ploo'; Raymie's Possee; Fly Away; Peat Smoke Air; Bloody Orkney; Jiggery Pokery; Passion And The Glory; Farewell Pentland Selkie.
