Will Fyffe - I Belong To Glasgow
Will Fyffe, famous for his song, I belong to Glasgow , also invented many fine character studies, including Dr McGregor, The Gamekeeper, The Railway Guard, and others which are featured on this CD. The village idiot Daft Sandy was one of his most popular characters; the drama critic James Agate referred to this as “a masterpiece of tragi-comedy”. Will Fyffe had the ability to create a character and then seem to actually be the character for he studied each type at first hand. According to Mr Macqueen-Pope, Will Fyffe was a man of great honesty and integrity, and this comes across in his songs when heard today.
