You can't grow up in Scotland without encountering the water of life, whisky. I confess that I've drunk my self senseless occasionally but not on whisky. You can't approach whisky like that. It's more than an alcoholic beverage. It's a way of life. As one whisky taster told me. "Whisky is successive series of emotional waves as affecting as the lilt of Gaelic singing". For me whisky has always been about stories: Glass of double malt in one hand, fiddles resting on the table, the sounds of the session still circling like swallows in your head. One of the company will take a deep contented breath and say "I was once ...". The stories need not be true but they are often based on some truth. For example, the The Fish is a 'true' story, told by my eldest brother. I was there when he left at night and came home at six in the morning with the trout. By the time I was telling the tale the sea trout had become a salmon. For the rest you have to judge for yourself. Whisky is not supplied with the album but it's highly recommended.
