The corries Road and the miles to Dundee

From the Corries 1977 album
Strings and things
and it introduced the "COMBOLINS"
14 insruments were shared
this is avery old song recorded by many BUT
I think the Corries version of "Road tae Dundee" is by far the the best

As your critique is ill spelled and the sad sounds of an ignorant clown (bawbag to you) I'm sure we wont lose any sleep over your opinion!

Sorry, I was not trying to question your patriotism. I suppose the growing use of English expressions just highlights how so much of our Scottish ways are being overtaken as English expressions enter usually through TV and the media. About 30 years ago a Scottish football player I knew who played for Norwich used an expression which he said was "Scottish rhyming slang". I pointed out that there was no such thing and suspect he got the idea from The Sweeney or some TV show.

A brilliant version of this great Scottish song....real Celtic music.....The Wolfe Tones do a fantastic rendition of the same tune but with an Irish slant called "Carnlough Bay"

I'm from Embra and one of my best mates is from Dundee.If he's a typical Dundonian then Dundee produces some of the nicest people you could ever meet.
