5 out of 5 stars Best Celtic Rock CD.......2003-12-31

This is a wonderful cd and Wolfstone's best (although barely). Great mix of celtic bagpipes, fiddle and whistles with guitar, bass, drums and vocals. The song "The 10 Pound Float" is worth the price of the cd alone. It's one of my favorite songs, period, of any genre. The production is superb on this cd as well. One of my favorite cds of the 200 or so that I own.

5 out of 5 stars A fantastic sophomore effort.......2001-02-09

What a great follow-up to "Unleashed." If you only own these two albums, you've got the best of Wolfstone, IMHO. My favorite song (and the fave of many others, to be sure) is "The Prophet." Why it was left off the later "Pick of the Litter" best-of compilation is unfathomable (blame Green Linnet). Hearing "The Prophet" live and up-tempo is an unforgettable experience.

"The Chase" features other wonders: the "Tinnie Run" medley, "The Appropriate Dipstick" (what a name!), and the heart-wrenching "Close It Down," about the tragic loss of backbone industries in Scotland. For that tantalizing combination of music that touches your heart and also gets you spinning and dancing, you can't beat Wolfstone.

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic experience.......2000-02-10

An e-mail buddy from Scotland mentioned this group. I'm very glad he did. They are fantastic. The music is a wonderful combonation of rock and highland. Who would have thought that bagpipes and electric guitar would sound soooo good together? If you love music, for music's sake, get this CD.

5 out of 5 stars Tonight the prophet gets paid.......2000-02-10

One of my favorite memories of my first year at college was having several friends over to my off-campus apartment and, while waiting for the rest to show up, they started riffling through my CD collection. They hit upon this one and decided to give it a spin. I took them right to "The Prophet." Watching Jen sitting there trying to figure out how to do sign language to the words, Colleen trying to figure out how to make a video of it, and Theresa ask me to play it over and over again was worth the fifteen bucks. And now to discover it could have been even cheaper! Oh, the ignominy!

4 out of 5 stars Mix of Celtic & Rock That Works.......1999-10-24

My parents tried to introduce this band to me when i was in 8th grade, which was five years ago. I disliked Wolfstone then, and missed a FREE concert by them because of it. A stupid mistake, for if i had liked them then i wouldn't have missed their only concert coming to my area of the world.

Anyhow, you will like Wolfstone if you like Celtic music and progressive rock. Also if you like Jethro Tull and/or Tempest, this might just be your type of thing.
