    A "where to find" music question re: waulking song An Coire Riabhach

    So I am posting this here on the off chance that somebody can point me in the right direction.

    I recently had the pleasure of watching Seachd for the first time, and really enjoyed it. The film has an excellent soundtrack as well. In particular, there is a very moving rendition of the waulking song An Coire Riabhach on the soundtrack and I would love to have a copy of it for my own use.

    After some research I found that the film did have a soundtrack but the CD is no longer in production, and is also not available on iTunes. I did some more research after striking out for a second hand copy at the usual suspects (ebay, etc) and found that the composer for the score seems to have posted the album on the free music lib website (Yay!) but that this song in particular, among a couple of others, seems to be broken/corrupted or for some other reason is not able to be downloaded (Boo!).

    So what I am wondering is if anyone has another source for this album either on CD or digital copy, or another way of getting that particular recording of An Coire Riabhach as I have found a number of other versions but none that I like as much as the version used in the film Seachd.

    As always, thanks for reading and I greatly appreciate any information you may have to give.

    Slainte and moran taing!
