Somewhere in our vast record collection we have a version of this song on a 78. The artist is given as D. Stewart (The street Singer) and is largely unaccompanied with a few bars of what I think is a concertina.

I would be amazed to find that Davie Stewart, my all-time favourite singer, had recorded a 78 of Bogie's Bonnie Belle, Somehow I doubt it but I would be delighted to be proved wrong. There have been quite a number of versions of Davie singing this song, the earliest as far as I know was on the Topic/Caedmon Folk Songs of Great Britain: Volume 2: Songs of Seduction published in America on Caedmon Records in 1961 and later in the UK on Topic in 1968 and 1970 and I wonder if banjoman could be confusing this with the vinyl releases from around that time.
I heard Davie play melodeon, accordion, highland warpipes and tin whistle but never concertina.... but why not? I'm sure he could have done.
