Rod Paterson is undoubtedly one of Scotland's finest singers and a celebrated interpreter of the songs of Robert Burns. This 1996 CD is Rod's special selection with some old favourites and some surprises. While there's  "Parcel of Rogues", "Green Grow the Rashes, O" and "A Man's a Man", he also gives his special treatment to "Guidwife Coont the Lawin" and "Gloomy December". Lovely!

Rod has enlisted an all-star backing band in the shape of Norman Chalmers on concertinas, whistles and instamatic; Wendy Stewart on harps and vocals; Mike Katz on pipes, whistle and bass; Tony McManus on acoustic guitar and Jack Evans on acoustic guitar, bass, whistles and ukelele.
