THE JANI LANG BAND
Devil In A Box

****

Folkies Records FR001, £14.99
Hair-raising compound-time Eastern European fiddle-led czardas, mahalas and horas, songs from Hungary, Bulgaria and Serbia, driving, intricate percussion from an Egyptian drummer – and it's all made in Aberdeen. The Jani Lang Band deliver seriously well-played music with only the occasional trace of creeping Celtic (a quirkily rhythmic 'Ale Is Dear' and 'Tha Mi Sgith' as a Bucharest Strathspey). Scotland's respected piper/soprano sax/low whistle player Fraser Fifield also guests on this intoxicating CD, which can only be faulted for one downside – that it's all over in 45 minutes.
