"e personification of Scottish music in the 20th century "
The personification of Scottish music in the 20th century – he was 92 when he died in 2000 – the former miner took his accordion to the concert stage, then radio and TV , becoming a household name at home and abroad. He has always been admired by musicians for his professionalism and skill, and here's why in 21 tracks. The album kicks off with his hit the Bluebell Polka, trips through twosteps, reels and jigs, and ends with the enthusiastic group singing of Will Fyfe and Harry Lauder songs...Scotland on Sunday
