On The West Side deserves to be a roaring success. From the very first play this album grabs your attention - mainly because of that superb voice. The title track is strong as is the cover of Donovan's Catch The Wind. Gaelic songs are well interspersed too and allow us to revel in extra vocals from Karen Matheson of Capercaillie plus others. The best tracks are Morning Light, Dark Eyes and Steve Earle's haunting Nothing But A [CENSORED] with the best saved till last - The Garden Boy, culm inating in a Runrig style guitar play-out (you can almost picture Malcolm on stage playing this one. The CD's hardly been off the system. It's infectious and clearly deserves greater airplay so that more people can hear one of THE best voices in music today. A winner and friends will be receiving this as presents.
