One of the finest singers borne of Scotland - his passing was a great loss to us all.

I first heard Davy Steele on the radio many years ago singing Of a' the Airts the Wind can Blaw.I taped it to to play to my brother of the same name. I was very impressed with his rendition of that Burns song. I rediscovered Davy Steele through a site that was honouring Johnny Cunningham. Sadly they are both gone.This song is a great tribute to a great man and a whole generation of miners. It’s surely straight from the heart and it’s who and what we are as the offspring of coal Miners.
