A couple of wee gems featuring Duncam MacRae (original Para Handy), Alex MacKenzie (skipper of The Maggie), Roddy McMillan (future Para Handy) and the Immortal John Grieve (forever Dan McPhail engineer of The Vital Spark).
Somewhere between the Inner Hebrides, Port Glasgow , Crinan, Ardrishaig and the lost continent of Mu this extraordinary crew are still aboard their puffer.
This was NOT a part of any BBC TV series but an independent film made by Douglas Gray. The lyrics and music are by the actor Alex MacKenzie. Guitar accompaniment by George Hill.
Och, man, just sublime. I seem to have owned the Highland Voyage album for ever, just the best of high jinks!

If you buy the Vital Spark on DVD you get this little musical interlude as an extra.
I think John Grieve fancies himself as a wee singer!!!
