Ossian, Seal Song

 

LP Iona Records 1981 - IR 002

 

Billy Ross sceglie la carriera solista ed entra quindi a far parte del gruppo Tony Cuffe (ex Alba). E' il secondo disco edito dalla Iona, registrato sempre negli studi Castle di Edimburgo dal fonico Calum Malcolm. Bella e caratteristica la copertina del solito Colin Browne. Sul retro una fotografia di Norman Chalmers.
