Classic Album: Jock Tamson's Bairns - The Lasses' Fashion

Friday 1st February 2008, 8.00pm

Glasgow Royal Concert Hall : Strathclyde Suite

Please Note: This event is now past.

Jock Tamson's Bairns' second album 'The Lasses' Fashion', released in 1982 (and listed among Richard Thompson's all-time Top 10 for Q magazine), remains a landmark in the contemporary revival of Scottish music, its marvellously fresh yet sensitive arrangements of Scottish traditional material having arrived on a scene still dominated by post-Corries ballads and Chieftains tunes.

It's performed tonight by the original personnel of Rod Paterson, Norman Chalmers, John Croall, Derek Hoy, Iain Hardie and Jack Evans.

The concert's other half will feature fiddler Anna-Wendy Stevenson among the Bairns' current line-up, with special guests including the superb young Scots singer Siobhan Miller, and veteran bothy balladeer Jock Duncan.
