I heard this #DickGaughan song in the radio today for the first time. Its simultaneously one if the most #Scottish songs I've ever heard, and totally obscure outwith a constituency of Scots of a certain age. A classic of his oeuvre nonetheless IMHO. #folkmusic

@RuthSalter It's also worth having a listen of, and better still to purchase, the 'Live at the BBC 1972-79' compilation resulting from the renewed interest in #DickGaughan https://talkingelephantrecords.bandcamp.com/album/live-at-the-bbc-1972-79

@revivalrecords Hi Jon, would your spaced brain be up to helping spread this to folk who love folk music and especially Dick Gaughan?? There's a lovely article in the Herald Scotland explaining the campaign and go-fund stuff to help him to legally claim his own music... it might be behind a paywall but you can usually read at least one article for free... https://www.heraldscotland.com/life_style/25338243.dick-gaughan-deserves-every-moment-newly-restored-reputation/

A timely message for Father's Day... and other things. Entirely germane when I wrote it 12 years ago, I had no idea how much more relevant it would soon be.

Gaughan grew up surrounded by the music of both Scotland and Ireland. Many of the themes that he sings about resonate to this day. 2/2

Dick Gaughan, Scottish/Irish folk singer-songwriter and avowed socialist was born on 17 May 1948 in Glasgow to working class parents. The family experienced considerable poverty, but the area they lived in possessed a strong community spirit and many of Gaughan's songs celebrate his working-class roots. 1/2

#TuneTuesday this week is #windmusic and I'm resiitng Earth Wind and Fire, Bob Dylan, Joni, Hendrix and loads of much loved "windy" tunes because @revivalrecords reminded me the other day of the wonderful #DickGaughan - and this is a live version of his completely beautiful Now Westlin Winds, performed at Harvard and with a wee 2mn introduction from the man, himself, while he tunes the guitar.

This Kickstarter closes in a few days, it’s raising money for Dick Gaughan, a very fine singer and guitarist. A variety of rare live recordings are available, remastered recordings. I signed up for an 8 CD retrospective, and a couple of live recordings. Do your ears, and Dick Gaughan, a favour. #folk #guitar #traditionalmusic #folkmusic #DickGaughan

I normally avoid Kickstarter pledge campaigns, there are far too many dodgy cons on the site. This one, however, is being run by a friend of a friend and seems entirely legitimate.
