KIRSTY MacCOLL
This four-CD set covers the short period the late, great Kirsty spent on Virgin Records.
The brilliant Kite, with her under-looked classic Don’t Come The Cowboy With Me, underlines her unique compositional humour and insight. On the equally outstanding sequel, Walking Down Madison is an under-appreciated anthem of its era.
Daughter of folk legend Ewan, Kirsty was a mighty talent in her own right before losing her life at the age of 41 in a terrible boating accident while on holiday in Mexico in 2000.
