''A Whisky Kiss'', an album by Shooglenifty, was released in 1996 on the Greentrax Recordings label. Keith Whitham of ''Living Tradition'' noted that the album was released "to an unsuspecting public, who wasted no time warming to their particular brand of 'acid ceilidh'. In doing so they became instant hits in just about every village hall across the land. Sadly this groundbreaking album suffered from a lack of mainstream radio airplay and television interest, as is often the case. Subsequently our beloved hero's are only household names in those homes frequented by their family, friends, and a loyal cult following."〔http://www.livingtradition.co.uk/webrevs/vertcd053.htm〕 Dave Sleger of Allmusic said "those who are annoyed by banal lyrics that drag down an otherwise good melody, take note: Scotland's Shooglenifty have the answer. No, they are not poet extaordinaires able to reduce Robert Burns to a mere literary footnote; nor do they camouflage any expressive deficiencies by singing in Gaelic. They've simply chosen to do without. Now there's nothing particularly unusual about an instrumental Celtic group. Much like the venerable instrumental rockers Dixie Dregs, who were firmly rooted in various American music forms (bluegrass, jazz, country, etc.), Shooglenifty's uniqueness also lies in the fact that, as a rock band, they've chosen to utilize their indigenous musical upbringing in a modern application. They do not limit themselves either."〔http://www.allmusic.com/album/whisky-kiss-mw0000086847〕 He also noted that "''A Whiskey Kiss'' will probably appeal less to folk purists than to those who welcome a little spice and variety injected into their rock & roll."〔http://www.allmusic.com/album/whisky-kiss-mw0000086847〕 ==Track listing== # "Da Eye Wifey: Woods No. 1" – 7:46 # "She's in the Attic: She's in the Attic/Hey Goat" – 5:45 # "A Song for Susie" – 4:41 # "A Whisky Kiss" – 6:05 # "Good Drying: Flick It up and Catch It/The Creepy Zone/Good Drying" – 5:33 # "Hoptsoi" – 8:06 # "The Price of a Pig: The Price of a Pig/Crabbit Shona/Bancroft's Descent" – 5:41 # "Farewell to Nigg" – 5:10 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「A Whisky Kiss」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
