Old Songs & Bothy Ballads - Some Rants O Fun [CD] Ref: AH004
This is the third collection of Old Songs and Bothy Ballads recorded at the Fife Traditional Singing Weekend - the annual gathering of traditional singers that takes place at Collessie in the Howe of Fife - in the heart of the ancient Kingdom of Fife. These recordings were made in May 2006.
The album features twelve different singers, opening with a superb rendition of the famous north east bothy ballad The Barnyard o Delgaty sung by Gordon Easton - seen in full flight in the cover photo. Special overseas guest Anita Best was brought up in one of the fishing outports of Newfoundland and sngs three songs from her local tradition including a Newfoundland version of an ancient traditional ballad The Bonnie Banks of Fordie still known in Scotland.
With a selection of fine guest singers and an audience most of whom are singers, the album captures the atmosphere of a singers' event with around half of the songs joined in fine chorus.
