2009 release from the Scottish singer/songwriter. Returning from his voyages of discovery around the world, Alasdair Roberts has brought a sack of assorted goods for you merchants, eight epic new songs Spoils, the years pass, our Alasdair just keeps getting older. Not the way you and I do, more like accelerated growth, centuries passing. When the lad starts scoring his tunes for archaic instruments such as psaltery, viol and 19th century guitar, it’s serving notice that he’s going way back. In a sense, this makes Spoils his earliest album.
