  1. Another one very good album from these series!! Many Thanks Ethnoman!! info : Shetland Fiddle Music

    Recordings illustrating not only the distinctive arts of the older unaccompanied fiddlers but also the way in which the tradition is moving today.

    Featuring Willy Henderson & Bobby Jamieson, Tom Anderson, Bobby Peterson, Jimmy Johnston & Pat Sutherland, Willie Hunter, Ronnie Cooper and the Cullivoe Traditional Fiddle Band.

    The Scottish Tradition Series consists of a selection of material previously held in the School of Scottish Studies Archives at the University of Edinburgh. The widely acclaimed collection is quite unique, and has been regarded as “the most important series of traditional recordings ever…”.
