doncatterall Obit: Shetland legend Peerie Willie Johnston(2007) (21) RE: Obit: Shetland legend Peerie Willie Johnston 26 May 07

Was at a Michael Marra concert in Stornoway last night and he sang "Schenectady Calling Peerie Willie Johnson" - very poignant as I had earlier picked up this thread.
From the way he introduced the song I don't think Michael was aware of Peerie Willie's passing - hope he got the message I sent back stage.
I only ever saw Peerie Willie on TV but almost every Shetland musician I've ever seen has mentioned him as an influence. RIP
