The fourth and penultimate volume celebrating the work of poet and songwriter Robert Tannahill. This collection reflects the breadth of influence that informed the Paisley weaver/poet's compositions, including elements of Irish, Jewish and baroque music. As ever, these are married with Freeman's fresh contemporary approach to arrangement and performance, as reflected in his top-drawer musical cast. Singers include Fiona Hunter, Rod Paterson, Claire Hastings, Ross Kennedy, John Morran, Wendy Weatherby and Brian ? hEadhra, accompanied by the first class instrumental line-up of Aaron Jones, Sandy Brechin, Angus Lyon, Marc Duff, Stewart Hardy, Frank McLaughlin and Adam Bulley.
