Scotch & Soul

Scotch & Soul is the second album by piper and saxophonist Rufus Harley recorded in 1966 and released on the Atlantic label.

Reception

Allmusic awarded the album 4½ stars stating "The bagpipes tend to be a drone instrument and Harley cannot surmount the problem of cutting off notes quickly, but he plays his main instrument as well as anyone and is thus far the only jazz bagpipe player".
