I always liked Garnet Rogers version of Westlin Winds...a Canadian perspective, no doubt influenced by Archie Fisher.
-
Beautiful arrangement, and an intriguing contrast to Dick Gaughan's version with acoustic guitar. Those Scottish accents were made for singing ...

I am a great fan of Jean Redpath, and of Serge Hovey's magnificent work, but I do not think that this is the best of it. Burns called it "Song composed in August" and for all of us in Scotland the glorious 12th of August continues to be the start of the shooting season, but if you want to hear the best rendition of this song as a song you must listen to Dick Gaughan' s recording. It would be great if more of Jean Redpath's work was available on Youtube, especially the amazing "Logan Water."

@ianbrooksbank Thanks, Ian. This is wonderful information.
Love to hear Gaughan. Glad to put Jean's work on youtube (if she drops a line--told she lives near by in Asheville NC). Rather use her images than mine. This piece is filler; I loved the song to share.
Burns in this lyric is the perfect poet of the world. I'm a mixed fan of Hovey's work; Jean is glorious. Piano...blah; not very Burns I suspect. Even so this arrangement and the rest of the album are understated glories.
