Review Capercaillie - The Capercaillie Collection - 1990-1996 [2000] / Survival Records Ltd:The Capercaillie Collection opens with five videos, and follows them with 15 live tracks from 1992 concerts at the Capital Theatre in Aberdeen and the Nairn Harbourfest. This concert material from Scotland's most successful Celtic folk-rockers was originally issued on VHS as Two Nights of Delirium. Of the videos, "Breisleach" opens the set with gentle atmospherics, leading into the hit singles "Coisch a Ruin" and "Waiting for the Wheel to Turn". "Miracle of Being" is a detour into AOR, while the final video "Ailein Duinn" is from the film Rob Roy. The concert footage is less polished, more vibrant and rousing. The hits are repeated, while 13 other tracks enthusiastically mix Clannad-style synthesisers and Celtic mist with Scottish folk updated to include some funky bouzouki playing. Topped by Karen Matheson's beautiful vocals, this is must for fans, and thoroughly entertaining for all bar die-hard folk traditionalists. On the DVD: The box lists Dolby Digital, though given the source material it is hardly surprising that this is in perfectly good, though hardly spectacular stereo. The concert is 4:3 full-screen, while the videos are at about 1. 66:1. [+]
Minor grain is noticeable but colours are strong and the images reasonably sharp. The band biography and discography are useful, though the photo gallery could be much more extensive. Unusually, the disc is coded for regions 2 to 6. -Gary S. Dalkin.

Review Kate Rusby - Live From Leeds / Kate Rusby:South Yorkshire folk singer-songwriter Kate Rusby celebrates a decade-plus as a recording artist and performer with this live concert, mostly adapted from her popular studio albums and replete with her typically evocative, emotional immediacy singing ancient ballads, sea shanties, and lullabies. Highlights include the infectious waltz, "Polly," the sprightly, hopeful "I Courted a Sailor," and Rusby's crystalline vocal on "The White Cockade. " Backed by her outstanding, all-acoustic band, Rusby's celebrated talent for making an old sound feel new again drives the delicate plaint "Who Will Sing Me Lullabies," the pop-like "The Cobbler's Daughter," and the sad "Withered and Died," which sounds very much like the passage of heartbreaking events into memory. Newcomers to Rusby may wonder if those songs in her repertoire having to do with dragons, knights, and fair maidens (such as this set's "Sir Eglamore") are terribly precious, but they actually prove as personally expressive as anything else she does. -Tom Keogh.
