One of my favourite Alistair Hulett somgs has always been Destitution Road (Click on link for an MP3 download).

When Alistair first recorded this, I remember suggesting to one of Scotland's best-loved performers (who shall remain nameless) that he should cover the song, but he said that his literary sensibilities would never let him come to terms with the chorus

"It's no use getting frantic
It's time to hump your load
Across the wild Atlantic
On the Destitution Road"

I kind of agree with him about the chorus, but I still love the song.
