Sleeve Notes

The collection of songs on this album contains many old favourites for which we have often been requested. Songs such as Mingulay Boat Song, Jock o' Hazeldean and Wild Mountain Thyme will live forever. Other songs which speak for themselves are Scots Wha Hae and Flower of Scotland. We have also included a number of our new songs.

Many thanks to the good folk of Forfar who are very much part of this record, which was made at Forfar Leisure Centre. A special mention to our bass guitarist, Jim Stirling; to Dominic Behan for McAlpines Fusiliers; to Hugh Jordan and to Craven for excellent support work; and to Alastair Campbell engineer extraordinary, who battled against overwhelming odds.
