by Catherine L. Tully
Artist: Ed Miller Album: "Never Frae My Mind" Year produced: 2006 In listening to "Never Frae My Mind," one thing rings forth more strongly than anything else--Miller's love for song and his country. Originally hailing from Edinburgh and moving to and living in Texas may seem quite the leap for most people, but Miller's roots have traveled with him, and he has remained true. His voice is all man--yet there is a sweet and wistful quality that peeks through often.  You will hear both old and newer Scottish songs on this 13 track CD. Instruments include guitar, cittern and mandolin, bodhran and drums, pipes and whistles and fiddle and concertina--all the good stuff. Miller has been around for a while now, and you know by listening that this is far from his first album. The recording quality is very good--allowing the music and voice to hold their depth and richness.His music would be considered "Scottish folk" (or, as some say, "Scottish folk revival") and it suits him. Miller holds a formal degree in folklore, so you know that this is no passing fancy for him, as he has truly devoted himself to it. Surrounding himself with it even further, he also hosts an NPR folk music program. You see, I believe for Miller--this is true love. An enjoyable CD with great sound, this one is a don't miss for those who love the genre. Buy the Album: "Never Frae My Mind" Catherine L.
