See my thread above about Donald Dallas. He was blopdy awful, but people thought him funny. He spoke and sang in a common Inverness accent. A PE teacher (he taught in various schools), a strongman, games announcer and am. dram. comedian. He made a series of 78's for Decca/Beltona in the 30's. His renderings are often adaptations of trad. songs with a broad Inverness dialect slant. He died in 1946, and his works can now can be classed as public domain, as his co-writers are also past the 70 years copyright reach.
