von Ranke, I don't remember my "us" getting maudlin - just louder.......

An old standard here – Anglophones may know it as the Eriskay Love Lilt




I haven't posted one of theirs for a while,




Nemowork posted this awhile ago but it's worth another listen




and this one I think could be adopted as our national anthem after we get rif England and the Other Bits......

Aye Chookie bad terminology on my part. "us" suggests a homogeneity that may not apply to Scotland i.e gael, lowlander, protestant, catholic, Morningside, Torry you get my drift. Anyway here is a nice old ballad by The Old Blind Dog's . :

I think it would be a good idea to have a virtual party in here when we could all spend the night discussing music and putting youtube on this thread. like we would be sitting the pub. We all could have so much fun.
