Albums

Since 1997 we have sold many tens of thousands of CDs and none of these sales would have been possible without the tremendous support of our retail customers and the members of the public who purchased our CDs from them. Also we thank the artists who appeared on the albums - without them there would have been no music.

We apologise about the lack of sound clips on the website - these have now been removed in order to avoid any ongoing licensing costs being incurred.

We were never a prolific record label but we believe what we did release was of the highest quality. Between 1997 and 2009 the following CD titles (listed in alphabetical order) were released on the Strathan Music label (in the UK only):

 

Beautiful Embrace: Various Artists
Our second compilation album which included tracks by world-renowned stars such as Bryan Adams, Sarah McLachlan, Vince Gill, Hayley Westenra etc. Released 2006, deleted 2009.

Celtic Embrace: Various Artists
Our first compilation album which included tracks by Sarah McLachlan, Ronan Hardiman, Capercaillie, Donnie Munro, Clannad etc. This was our most popular release. Released 2003, deleted 2009.

Celtus: Moonchild
This award-winning album was originally released on the Sony Music label in 1997. In 2005 Sony allowed us to remaster, resequence the album and design new graphics for the CD booklet. Apparently we sold more copies of the new version than Sony Music did of the original version! Released 2005, deleted 2009.

Dalriada: Sophistry and Illusion
A fusion of Scottish/Celtic pop/rock music. A highly under-rated album. Licensed by Strathan for the UK market in 2001. Released 2001, deleted 2006.

Darby DeVon: Highlands
Originally released in the USA - licensed by Strathan for the UK. Featuring lovely vocals and ethereal music. Released 2000, deleted 2006

Highlander: Born To Be A Warrior
We originally heard of Highlander when this album was released in 1992. We loved it then and still do. We asked them to do a concert in Lochinver Village Hall in 1992 - certainly a night we will never forget. In 2001 we licensed the album for the UK market and designed new booklet graphics. Released 2001, deleted 2006.

Hollie Smith: Light From A Distant Shore
Originally released in USA and licensed by Strathan for the UK. Produced by Steve McDonald and featuring the distinctive and beautiful voice of Hollie Smith. Released 1999, deleted 2007.

Lisa Lynne: New Morning
Originally released in the USA and then licensed by Strathan for the UK. An excellent instrumental album featuring the accomplished harp playing of Lisa Lynne and backing musicians. Released 2004, deleted 2007.

Matt Ender: Ancient Isle
Originally released in the USA and then licensed by Strathan for the UK. An upbeat instrumental album with a unique sound which proved to be very popular. Released 1999, deleted 2007.

Paul Schwartz: Turning To Peace
This compilation album was exclusive to Strathan Music. It comprises music from four of Paul's albums - State of Grace I, State of Grace II, State of Grace III and Earthbound. Wonderfully evocative classical crossover music. Released 2007, deleted 2009.

Philip Riley and Jayne Elleson: A Better Sun Will Rise
Another album that was exclusive to Strathan Music. It comprised music from four of the artists' albums plus several brand new tracks. This music deserves to be heard by a wider audience and we are sad to have to delete it so soon after its release due to the closure of our business. Released 2009, deleted 2009.

Philip Riley and Jayne Elleson: The Blessing Tree
Originally released on the White Cloud label and then licensed by Strathan Music for the UK with new graphics and running order. One of the best Celtic albums of its type in our opinion. Released 2002, deleted 2009.

Steve McDonald: Highland Farewell
Originally released in the USA and then licensed by Strathan for the UK. The UK graphics are different to the USA release. Another album by the foremost exponent of Scottish/Celtic historical based music. Released 2000, deleted 2006.

Steve McDonald: Legend
Originally released in the USA and then licensed by Strathan for the UK. The UK graphics are different to the USA release. Steve took a break from making Scottish/Celtic albums after this release but is working on new material which may see the light of day in 2010. Released 2003, deleted 2006.

Steve McDonald: Sons of Somerled
Originally released in the USA and then licensed by Strathan Music for the UK. This was the first album we released. A truly ground-breaking album of Scottish/Celtic music. Released 1997, deleted 2006.

Steve McDonald: Stone of Destiny
Originally released in the USA and then licensed by Strathan for the UK. The follow up album to Sons of Somerled. The UK graphics are different to the USA release. Released 1998, deleted 2006.

Thomas Otten: Open Wings
This was another album exclusive to Strathan Music which featured music from Thomas's two albums Close to Silence and Portraits plus a brand new track - Open Wings. Truly inspirational music featuring the stunning vocals of Thomas and the brilliant music of his producer, Frederic Momont. Released 2007, deleted 2009.
