THE HIGHEST APPLE (an ubhal as airde)
"An instrumental cycle of Runrig songs"
by Steve Gwyn Davies (recorder/whistle) 
with Sabine Barnes Rauch (orchestral synthesisers) 
SOLCD01

The album was produced in Skye and Edinburgh by Chris Harley, producer, amongst others, of Runrig, Donnie Munro, Blair Douglas and Wolfstone. Originally released in 1994 on the Vital Spark label, the album was digitally remastered and re-released in 2000 in a new edition with six tracks extended and several short unaccompanied tracks omitted, making the music more continuous.
