His Daddy was Scottish so he was exposed to the music . . . especially the Jimmy Shands . . . .! How could he avoid it - good old Jimmy Shand!!

What luck! I came looking for this song because I came across it from another group playing it...and it turns out it's a Richard Thompson song. And it's a sweet one!I guess I've overlooked this album - double sweet. I'm buying it right now.

Jimmy Shand and my grandfather were great mates.

as far as I can see this song evidences total respect for Jimmy Shand

Both. He once said that he has a love/hate relationship with Jimmy's music.

Can't quite work out if Richard is having a laugh at auld Jimmy or, (as I suspect), he actually had a liking for Sir Jimmy's music? Guess, that's why RT is so "mercurial"!

Top track! If you don't know him also check out Fairport Convention and Nick Drake - Richard Thompson's influence is evident in both. Awesome stuff.

To the in-initiated this CD "Rumor and Sigh" might be a good place to start falling under this man's spell. Love Thompson and never miss a chance to see him live.
