An extended version of the Garioch Blend. Same great attitude with more fiddlers.
In the hey-day of cassette tapes we could hardly get enough of the releases by the Garioch Blend (pronounced 'Geerie) and this was another of their popular inventions, the country dance band with a strathspey & reel flavour.
Still swinging after all these years.
