Subject: RE: BS: roy williamson
One of my most disappointing days was when I was in Scotland in 1988 and just missed the Corries.
I've stood on the very spot where the bonfire was lit as a signal for the Campbells to rise and murder the MacDonalds.

I 1990 I did a tour of the pubs and folk clubs in Scotland and my last gig was at The Black Bitch in Linlithgow. I dedicated my last number to Roy Williamson by singing Flower of Scotland. The wasn't a dry eye in the house.
I do love Scotland,the Scots and not just for the Scotch!
