The Dangleberries "Nae Sleep Tae Regent Street" DANG002
Release date: August 1, 2009
Running time: 40:15, 11 tracks
“Nae Sleep Tae Regent Street” is the second album released by The Dangleberries. These guys and girls define their music as Galloway Pipe Rock. In fact, the band that recorded this album consisted of 12 members, including four pipers and six percussionists.
The album is a well balance of originals (6 instrumentals, the odd-numbered tracks) and 5 covers (one of them a Robbie Burns song). My faves are the original tunes: “The Screamin’ Yab Dabs”, “The Meltit Wellie”, “Too Boozy” and “Nae Sleep Ta Regent Street”. All these tracks follow a similar approach to that of the French band Black Label Zone first and second albums: awesome pipes instrumental music with an Old Blind Dogs twist on percussion.
Regarding the covers, the highlights would be their Bonney M medley “Daddy Cool/Rasputin” and their rendition of “A Man’s a Man fur A’That” with that “I Fought The Law” intro.

“Nae Sleep Tae Regent Street” is a fine album, the perfect CD to become acquainted with this pipe band music. And, given that the band has recently released their third album, to get both of them together would be a good purchase.
