Smoking Stone Band, Celtic Folk and Fiddle Music, Orkney, Scotland
The Smoking Stone Band are a four-piece outfit comprising, fiddle, mandolin, 5-string banjo and bass.

A shopkeeper once remarked
that if he let someone hear this recording, their foot would immediately begin tapping
and he would make a sale.
Douglas Montgomery is a highly regarded fiddle player and this album demonstrates perfectly why he is worthy of this status.

Backing-wise, there are influences from all sorts of music from blues to bluegrass, cheekily blatant at times.
