Had my time in jute mills in Dundee the Dundee men are called kettle boilers as it was the women that worked in the mills while the men staid home should have said the women worked for lower wages while the owners would have to pay men more

This song is from the album "Coorse And Fine, Songs And Ballads Of Dundee" (1985) Springthyme Records ‎- SPR 1017

I saw The Lowland folk Four on two occasions. Both in 1967. Loved them, and have this record album. But since it's travelled around a bit since '68, it is a little worse for wear. A little scratchy now but I still enjoy it.

They reckon there were 60,000 jute weavers in Dundee at one time. My mother and her two sisters were among them, starting at age fourteen. The generations that followed dont know who lucky we were.

There's only one problem the machines could only go so fast , most oh the workers in the mills very happy and pleasant they were proud workers most of the canteens gave excellent food that cost about 4/-. Very cheap , a sausage roll out of wallaces 1/10 . The meals a lot of the kids at dinner time would eat with there mums , it's so sad dundee and tayside lost this important work which is carried on abroad ,I have worked since 1967 to 2023 as a weighing engineer at one time 36,000, then 16,000, I was last in the verdant about 1980 3 people ,ten years latter jute industries a small office 1 man 1 part time sectary, old stewarts cream of the barly , then Bonar long went , there's no much left of the old works oh dundee 😪😪

I think this is a very American story-- a nation of immigrants and refugees and the indigenous, too, all mourning the loss of home, family, community. Powerful.
