Giok, as well as Little Robyn, maybe never heard recordings by Ewan MacColl of Scots traditional songs, such as the ones he made for Topic, among which The Jacobite Rebellion; for Folkways (the three with the Child Ballads; Scottish Popular Songs; Bothy Ballads of Scotland, etc); for Tradition (Classic Scots Ballads), for Argo (the 10 Lps of The Long Harvest, with many Scots ballads), and many, many more. I think maybe they know Ewan MacColl for his own compositions, or for recordings with English Folk Songs, for example The Manchester Angel, but not for recordings of Scots songs, because I just can't understand their scornful comments about Ewan MacColl as a Scots balladeer. For sure, Archie Fisher and Dick Gaughan wouldn't agree with them. Roberto
