God rest Uncle Jim bloody hell the best forgotten band of all time honorable mention Jock Tamsons Bairns, the Tannahill Weavers Battlefield Band. The only time you hear from, Topic is on the Tragic occasion of the passing of Norma Waterson. Will there be any stars in her crown never doubt it

Probably my favourite Scottish band. Would love the album on CD or other digital format.

@RogerMeadowstailor1, I was a friend of Jim and Sylvia back in the day when they stayed in the Gorbals, Tam Drysdale and I played with them and sometimes Tony Cuffe in the Scotia Bar and Victoria Bar and one time at the Aberfeldy folk festival. Jim was a great guy and Sylvia had the most wonderful voice.

Please put up Sylvia's "Last O' the Tinkler" from this album. I loaned my copy of the vinyl and it never came back, or I'd have it up now.

Aaah this reminds me of our annual street party on the road I live - we get folk bands coming down and performing on the road and everyone jigs their tits off till they collapse (even though no one can do it right)

Robin, was this at all an influence upon the shredding section at the end of Sim Sala Bim?
