הפעל מאוחר יותר הפעל מאוחר יותר רשימות לייק אהבתיWe’re finishing off series 2 of the podcast with a song which has perhaps the best backstory of any Scottish folk song, MacPherson’s Farewell . Also known as MacPherson’s Rant , the song is often said to have been written on the gallows by James MacPherson, hanged at Banff on 16th November 1700. But how much of the story is actually true? Listen in as we try to wade through the legends and get to the truth. This is the last episode in the current series but we’ll be back for series 3 early next year. In the meantime, if there are any songs you’d like to hear about please let us know. Music featured : MacPherson’s Rant by The Sorries (taken from the album Auld Lang Syne - 2012) MacPherson’s Rant by The Sorries (podcast session recording, taken from Episode 7: Happy Homemany - 2020) You can listen to the full version of the song on The Sorries album Auld Lang Syne and can hear more of our songs on the major streaming services or by visiting http://thesorries.co.uk You can also get lots of Sorries -themed rewards - including exclusive videos, song tutorials and even a house concert - if you sign up to support us on Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/TheSorries Some references and further reading are to be found on the podcast site - scottishsongguide.com…

The beautiful Border ballad Jock O Hazeldean is the subject of this week’s episode. The song tells the tale of a young woman who skips out on her handsome young groom-to-be and instead heads north to be with her true love, Jock. First collected by Sir Walter Scott for his Minstrelsy of the Scottish Borders at the beginning of the 19th century, it may actually date from almost 100 years before that. Music featured : Jock O Hazeldean by The Sorries (taken from the album The Sorries - 2009) You can listen to the full version of the song on The Sorries album The Sorries and can hear more of our songs on the major streaming services or by visiting http://thesorries.co.uk You can also get lots of Sorries -themed rewards - including exclusive videos, song tutorials and even a house concert - if you sign up to support us on Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/TheSorries Some references and further reading are to be found on the podcast site - scottishsongguide.com…

The subject of this week's episode is the very familiar song Wild Mountain Thyme . But should we call it Will Ye Go Lassie, Go ... or possibly Purple Heather ... or should it actually be The Braes o’ Balquhidder ?! Douglas and Marty delve into the origins and development of this much-covered song, and look at Robert Tannahill and Francis McPeake , two figures who arguably did most to shape the song we sing today.

This week we’re getting the spades out and digging around in the history of arguably the most widely identifiable Scottish song of all - Loch Lomond (also referred to in some quarters as The Bonnie, Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond ). Marty and Douglas express some pretty definite opinions on a song which, in its worst guise, can become a tacky, clichéd representation of Scotland, but in its best can be a heart-wrenching ballad or a unifying, crowd-pleasing stomper.

הפעל מאוחר יותר הפעל מאוחר יותר רשימות לייק אהבתיThe song we’re analysing in the latest episode of the Scottish Song Guide is one which features in folk song collections in a number of countries - The Bonnie Lass of Fyvie . Also variously known as Pretty Peggy of Derby , Pretty Peggy-O , The Maid of Fife and Fennario, there’s lots in this song to speculate about, a few things to draw conclusions from and even a bit of evidence to help unravel its story. We hope you enjoy our take on it… As a post-recording note, it was Joan Baez’s maternal grandfather , rather than her dad, who was based at St. Mary’s Cathedral in Edinburgh. It’ll make sense once you’ve listened.

For the second episode in the new series of the Scottish Song Guide we're investigating a song which first appeared very nearly 300 years ago, Dumbarton’s Drums . This one is almost a tale of two songs, however, as the original version - with words by Allan Ramsay and a tune which has its roots in the early 1600s - differs fairly considerably from the version that most people are familiar with now.
