about

We recorded this album in 1996 in the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh. It was a double bill with the Cauld Blast Orchestra. It was recorded in the summer for a Christmas broadcast hence the Christmas Single track. I think I was trying to be funny at the time. Hey ho - can't beat hindsight for what is funny or not!

Most of these tracks are taken from our two albums - Waltzes for Playboys and Strathspey and Surreal. Christmas Single is only available here!!!

It was a great privilege to perform with Kevin MacKenzie and Simon Thorpe. As you can hear from the recording, they are both brilliant musicians who play with empathy to the music. They also laughed at my jokes which was the best thing.
