Terrific... I think met Davy many years ago when i used to go to a session in the Eagle Folk Club in Lauder.. He sang a terrific version of Green Grow the Rashes that night amongst others..

Sad that he is no longer with us...

@vinckett Thanks for your memories of Davy.....when Davy moved to Lasswade we became reunited.he was a great friend party-goer he had great engery that he put into everthing he done

I served with Davy in the Army and we met up again when he and Sally came over to Germany where I had settled after leaving the colours. My employer was the sponsor of the Scottish Folk Festival, what a coincidence. 10 years after Davy's untimely passing his music lives on and the man is a legend within the ranks who had the priviledge of serving alongside him. Thanks for the memories Davy, we'll all meet again one day on the Tank Park in the sky.

Steeley 70 - your dad was unbelievable. A profound, but not understood troubadour.

[Hao2eu]

steely 70 Just to say I really enjoyed your father's music. It moved me a lot - especially the Ceolbeg albums,and especially of these seeds to the wind which I still play many year later. Didn't know he came from the pans - for some reason thought he was Dundee

riskebizz AND Gairlochan thank you both for your nice comments it good to know that flok still enjoy this type of music

[riskebizz]

beautiful beautiful music keep doing what you are doing

Arguably the sweetest, most soulful male voice in Scottish trad music. The loss of Davey, along with Tony Cuffe and Johnny Cunningham within a few years of each other and all in the prime of life, is a loss I will never get over. I treasure the recordings which they made before they were taken from us.
