Hot off the Press – CD by Folk Singer Ian Young

Ian plays new and old tunes with some of his friends, on traditional instruments of fiddle, guitar and whistle, as well as the less familiar viola, mandolin, and five-string banjo. Ian has written most of the tracks and a sheet of words is included to help get Ian’s stories across. But also included are a few well-known numbers like “Bonnie Dundee” and “Niel Gow’s Lament.” (And that is not a mis-spelling – NG insisted that his name was spelt Niel and not Neil).

Ian is generously sharing the proceeds of the CD between Parkinson’s UK Edinburgh Branch (a big thank-you from the Branch) and St. Columba’s Hospice.

The cost is £10.00 plus £2.00 p&p if purchased from Hon Branch Secretary, Olivia Bell, who can be contacted via 07594 481175 or honsec@edinburghparkinsons.org. We will also aim to have copies to sell at various Branch meetings and events in which case the cost is £10.
