Real Mckenzies, The
Clash Of The Tartans
The 20th anniversary re-release of The Real McKenzies Clash of the Tartans. Newly remastered, this album launched one of the most entertaining and hard working bands on the planet. Led by legendary front man Paul McKenzie, these kilt-wearin madmen cement mix-up punk with Scottish traditional music-in fact, some critics credit them for inventing this now-popular hybrid. This album is the bands finest effort to date: once the needle hits the groove its a non-stop party where scotch and ale are rapidly guzzled. From the rousing opening track "Stone Of Kings" to the wild "Thistle Boy," they combine power and some of the catchiest hooks this side of Glasgow.
