40 year of powerful stuff. He writes great melodies & lyrics, A strong emotive voice, with politics to match and an individual percussive style on guitar. A great humble character always welcome at our club.

I remember the despair of my grandad and my dad steel workers both from ireland to scotland to teesside and still no work...real men. And no dignity was allowed to them ...and not for the first time

[qaz121212]

[olga1954]

Vin is an absolute legend, his live performances are a real joy. Good health to you Vin and thank you for the enjoyment you have given us.Hope to catch you again soon.

Vin ROCKS. Haven't seen Vin in over 20 years (alas, we moved far away), didn't recognize the video until he opened his mouth. Love his HUMOR, accent, message, and music. Stoelen, Vin!

[Tekchap]

Consistently entertaining. A greatly talented guy with equal measures of fun and seriousness in every performance.

[bendenvermeg]

A Great privelage to call Vin a Friend and his music and humour is such an inspiration to me and all who meet him

[mmfrfr]

Garbutt is great. I'm so impressed by this man.

[dragonfish1803]

typical sentimental garbage, can't believe anybody listens to this kind of home-written crap any more

[bentonelvis]

mmmm careful ... some might find it difficult to avoid making equivalent comments about holiday home movies.

[kuntucks]

Living in Denmark I just don't get to see my heroes, Vin has always been an inspiration from way back when, "The Sally" and "The Sun Inn" in Doncaster, lion inn Wath, etc. where I first dared get out my guitar and sing out loud! Thanks too whoever was responsible for posting this!
