Οι μαγικοί Σκωτσέζοι σε ονειροπολήσεις κα χορούς από τα early ’70s.
Θυμάμαι ακόμα την εντύπωση που μου είχε κάνει η σκανδαλώδης οικειότητα αυτού του πράγματος όταν το είχα πρωτακούσει…
Μήπως αρχίσουμε να διεκδικούμε την ελληνικότητα των highlands; [πλάκα κάνω]✻
The magic Scots, daydreaming and dancing in the early ’70s.
I still recall the impression that the scandalous familiarity of this one had left me, first time I heard it. This sounds like “ours”.
Should we start claiming the Highlands as Greek? [LOL]

Enjoy!

Stay Safe!
As always, I’m happy to hear your thoughts, however I’d highly recommend a direct dialogue with the …’source’ so please visit Oannes’ page where you can also listen to the song ! 😉

I love jigs and reels. I also like the strings those two are pulling in the photo. The woman in the black dress with green stockings has really good form. When I first started playing guitar in the 70s, one teacher had me buy a book of jigs & reels and told me to learn to play them because they were really good exercises for fingering. They were great exercises and fun to play. I have most of my old music books, but I’ll be darned if I can find that book of jigs & reels.
Oh, great exercises indeed!!!!
I agree on her form. This is one thing I’d love to have learned even if I wouldn’t have a live target to aim (vegan 😉).
Archery is fun for the skill of hitting a target.
Well I could always go for those hostile objects!! 😂🤣😉
True. And arrows are quiet.
Oh, they are, aren’t they?! 😉 🤣😂
