Q MagazineJul 10, 2014Anderson's anger, defiance and pride are all here, but what comes out is peculiarly beautiful and affecting. [Aug 2014, p.108]
-
UncutJul 10, 2014From Scotland With Love successfully and movingly unites past and present, old and new, sight and sound. Another diamond. [Aug 2014, p.77]
-
Aug 15, 2014As a standalone album From Scotland With Love is good, but found wanting in areas of length and substance. As a soundtrack to a film, it’s wonderful. The context to choose is the listener’s.
-
MojoJul 10, 2014An image-rich rumination on Scotland past and present. [Aug 2014, p.86]
-
