Sleeve Notes:
HUGO DUNCAN HAS RECORDED HIS FIRST ALL IRISH L.P. AND THE RESULT IS A FINE COLLECTION OF MANY OLD FAVOURITE REBEL AND PATRIOT SONGS AND SOME NUMBERS RECENTLY WRITTEN DEPICTING IN VERSE THE IRISH SITUATION AS SEEN TODAY.
TWO OF THESE "SNIPERS PROMISE" AND "BALLAD OF BILLY REID" DEMONSTRATE THE MODERN METHODS OF APPROACH TO IRISH REBEL SONG WRITING AND SHOW A MARKED CONTRAST TO THE TRADITIONAL SONGS LIKE "BOOLAVOGUE" AND "CROPPY BOY" WHICH ARE ALSO INCLUDED ON THIS ALBUM.
THE LP TITLE "THE LAND WE LOVE" IS DERIVED FROM ANOTHER TRACK ESPECIALLY WRITTEN FOR EVER POPULAR HUGO DUNCAN. THIS SUPERBLY RECORDED ALBUM WILL GIVE MUCH ENJOYMENT TO FANS OF HUGO DUNCAN AND LOVERS OF GOOD IRISH MUSIC ALIKE.
