Thats right Rick, clearly stated.

I have always been amazed that they could get so much music out of two men and two instruments.

Roy was a deft and subtle hand at the guitar as "The News from Moidart." shows. Also listen to their version of "No Man's Land" for Roy's fine guitar. And in many ways Roy's voice was remarkable as well.

Ronnie became an excellent guitarist and harmonica player very quickly. That the two were skilled was without doubt. And they exposed generations to fine Scotts folk music.
